fair tax for me is all democrats pay 99%, since that what they call them, and the repubs pay 1% since we are the !% minority
I have thought of that many many time. 2 tax rates. 1 for dems 1 for repubs end thir choice fast if they must actually pay for them
have you heard of the 16th ammendment ? I'm not even American and I know about it, how do you fancy your chances of changing the constitution cause thats what you would have to do to enact this fairtax bollocks, which is just another invention to get the wealthy out of paying their taxes.
the 16th ammendment allows the federal government to levy an income tax you idiot, which kind of blows the whole fairtax nonsense right out of the water before it even starts.
I think it is a prime example of a false narrative. I bet 90% of Americans would support a progressive fair tax system, and yet no one ever seriously suggests it!
Discriminating against someone on the basis of their political views. Yes, that's exactly what a democracy is.
Well I guess it was a good thing that the Founders figured out a way to protect the minority from your tyrannical views by putting in measures that allow those discriminated against to obstruct such disgusting agendas.

Sorry, but I don't quite get what this fairtax thing is all about. Neither the website nor the video are very informative. Maybe you can help out and explain. So does it basically want to finance state expenditures solely via VAT? And if so, how would that be fair and not ruin people with low and middle class incomes?

So you only want to add a sales tax on luxury items such as yachts, but not on essentials such as food, clothing and the heating bill? Right now theres a hell of a lot of mothers out there who find it hard enough as it is to keep their family fed and warm. Families who have to spend all their income on mere survival with no room left for savings. Theyd be hard hit by seeming trifles such as the butter costing three times as much as before. It all adds up, you know.

How can inflation stop if everything gets massively more expensive? How will prices drop if you add a tax on them? And how will Granny cope who gets a 100% of her small pension already and won't get a cent more?
