No income tax and therefore no paperwork, no inheritance tax, no FICA or Medicare tax, no corporate tax, no vat tax. 23 cents of every dollar spent on new goods and services will go to Washington and the state sales tax will be paid on 77 cents of every dollar spent not earned.

From your statements it looks like you haven't read either book about The Fair Tax. There is no SS or Medicare tax.
Secondly you're neglecting the prebate. The Fairtax sets forth a formula for computing the poverty level. Then they determine an annual consumption allowance. For a married couple with 2 kids in 2006 this would be equal to 26400 and the sales tax on that would be 6072 or a monthly prebate of 506. Everyone gets a prebate and everyone keeps 100 percent of their paychecks.
Read both books.

C.R. 
 

THANKS, I WILL READ THE BOOK

 

HOWEVER I READ THE BILL H.R.- 25 YOU  SHOULD READ IT CAREFULLY

 REF:

 "ADJUSTMENT TO THE RATES IN SUBSEQUENT YEARS"

"REPEALS INCOME TAX" IF "THE SIXTEETH AMENDMENT TO THE CONSTITUTION IS REPEALED WITHIN SEVEN YEARS" THUS CURRENT SYSTEM

WOULD STILL BE IN FORCE.

 

ITS COMMON SENSE THAT THE GOVERNMENT COULD NOT SUPPORT ITS OPERATIONS AND THE DEBT, AND SOC SEC, ETC. ETC. ON 23%.

 

THIS BILL IS A DISGUISE FOR A GIGANTIC TAX INCREASE

 

BEWARE OF BILLS THAT USE "SOUND BITES"

The chances of HR 25 passing the House this year are slim at best,
even in the lame duck session in November and December. Once the
Congress adjourns for the year in Dec., all bills "die" and therefore
would need to be re-introduced next year for consideration in the
112th Congress that convenes Jan., 2011. Also, the best way to contact
Congress so that they actually get the message is via GradeGov.
GradeGov sends the messages via personal email accounts in all 535
Members of Congress' office instead of dumping the messages into the
Senate/House designed email system. Those messages only go to a
computer system. GradeGov's messages go to a live person in each
office. It makes a BIG difference. Keep the faith!
