You've provided not one single economic analysis to show that the FairTax would actually be fair. All you've done is made claims. I doubt your claims, but in an attempt to be fair, I tried looking up some data for you. All of the data I found suggests that tax burden would increase for everyone making between $15,000 and $200,000 a year, with the tax burden on those making over $200,000 falling off quite a bit.

You've made claims that this simply isn't true, but I doubt your claims, and without hard numbers my mind won't change. Yes, that's right, I'm calling you on your bullshit. Get crackin.

Edit: Mike Huckabee thinks the Earth is 6000 years old. 8 years of that kind of crap has been more than enough.


This was an unprovoked attack and is not going to get any friendly response from me. I have not criticised you for any beliefs you may have, I have simply been expressing this grand idea of a FairTax that will benefit everyone. I will show this in my next post. So sit down and listen.


The bold statement was an unfair ad hominem attack and off topic.  Sorry.  The rest of my point still stands, though.
