There will always be a black market. Do we just throw away a great idea, because of black market assholes?

How would they do that? If they want to increase the FairTax from 23%, they'd have to raise the tax on EVERYONE. This is one very nice part of the FairTax. It won't be easy to change when they'd be effecting EVERYONE. Plus, it would require a super majority vote.

Do you see a sales tax on stocks you buy now? Why do you think the FairTax would apply to stocks?

This is by far the biggest factor for me. Health, Money & Time = INDEPENDANCE

Good Luck and stay positive.

Definitely a leading indicator, but personal choices can make the difference. One thing I've found to be almost a sure thing is, no matter what a person looks like in their 20's, if they don't incorporate regular exercise into their weekly routine, they will go down hill significantly by...

Wow, now I see why you so bored at your University.:eek:

You apparently haven't had your first 9 - 5 job yet. When I was in school it was beer, rock n' roll & women, when I wasn't studying. Some of the best years of my life. Loosen up man and get laid fast.

I understand you have a concern for spending. I do to, but what you're saying is, lets tackle TWO HUGE ISSUES AT THE SAME TIME. I think we need to inject some common sense here. It would be a gigantic change for government to innact the FairTax. But, a gigantic change for the better. One...

I like to believe it was Libertarian thinking. Give us Liberty or give us death! They might if enough people tell them they're not going to vote for them. Hey, what can I say, this is a grassroots effort. You gotta make it happen.

One more adavantage of the FairTax. Thank you

How about no Federal or Payroll Taxes AT ALL. At the poverty level, a person pays ZERO. Wouldn't your father like to receive 100% of his pension, rather than paying taxes on it?

The FairTax is progressive in that MOST wealthy people will pay more taxes, because they generally spend more. The poor will not pay a dime in taxes. What do you mean by not accepting the social and political consequences of schemes like this??? Look, for me it's a no brainer. FairTax...

Right and you see where we're at now. A very nice aspect of the FairTax is the difficulty Congress would have raising federal taxes on us in the future. Its not so easy to increase that simple and easily seen 23% sales tax when EVERYBODY has to pay it. Plus it would require a super majority...

Who said the wealthy would be paying a pittance in tax. Where do you guys get these ideas from? Generally speaking, the more a person makes, the more they spend, therefore the more tax they would pay. What so hard to understand about that? Do you think a guy that makes $10 mil/yr is going to...

Please visit FairTax.org Again, the FairTax has nothing to do with the way government spends money.

Liberal = Income redistribution.....need I say more. But thats for another thread. Google John Linder (R-Georgia) and HR 25. Its available right now with companion legislation, the repeal of the 16th ammendment. It can be done. Is it a long shot, sure? Government hates to give up power...

If you read the book, and you claim to have talked to Boortz, don't you remember that little detail about every household receiving a prebate check? Under the FairTax plan, the poor are completely exonerated from paying ANY federal or payroll tax. What more could a liberal want???

Two things: 1) Its very clear you don't understand the FairTax 2) If Illegals see the tax as too high (which they won't, because prices will be about the same, since embedded taxes will be removed) then maybe we won't have to cart their asses out of here, because they'll do it themselves.
