Thing is, I think 23% is too high, but the general concept is fantastic.
Also, the FairTax people have devised it such that poor folks don't pay any taxes.
That ain't right, either.
Every citizen should have skin in the game.
But again, the general concept of one tax to cover all our current taxes is great and would force transparency in government spending.
NO MORE FILING A RETURN EVERY YEAR, EITHER!!!

If you can get them to go there for 3 to 5 minutes, it could change the country.

no man, I am all for simplicity, but it's the old two wrongs make a right. Just because the current tax system is messed up is no reason to replace it with a consumption tax. The only fair tax is an income tax, and it is now 21st century and they have invented the computer.Thing is, I think 23% is too high, but the general concept is fantastic.

2 wrongs make a right=most income tax evasion is a result of the drug trade. Illegal drugs is a wrong, why not just add a consumption tax and two wrongs will make it right.
If I make money I am willing to pay taxes. If I make no money in 2015 I shouldn't have to pay one penny of taxes. So as a trader, I could lose money in 2015 and still pay 23% on everything I purchase (and those are things I need like pot, cigarettes and beer!)
Just lay off of me, I have some very good years, and 2015 may be one of them, and I will pay you all the taxes I owe.
