Excuse me but where are you getting your idea that the FairTax will not produce the same revenue? It will produce about 300 billion MORE per year. The IRS is basically one money eating whole. I would be wary. You may want to read the FairTax book in order to give better arguments. God Bless =)
Watching Americans fight amongst themselves is funny. They are to stupid to realize both the so called conservatives and so called liberals are being played against each other to divide you. The beginning of the end for fat american dim-wits
Its based on getting over a trillion dollars a year FROM the government -- in sales taxes the government PAYS itself.
Yes -- its THAT fuching stupid.
By getting MOST of the taxes FROM the government -- Fairtax claims their taxes wouldnt cost ANYTHING - cause all prices will go DOWN by the sales tax amount, So they can tax all the sales tax they want -- its FREE -- prices will go down!!! 2+2=5, therefore, I am the pope.
the main reason the economy expanded so much 80's was because paul volker dramatically lowered interest rates in the 80's and regan did not create 21m jobs it was more like 17m. Also regan deregulated savings and loans causing the savings and loan crisis and he also created a huge national debt (not very conservative). Oh, yeah and there was that whole iran contra thing. I am not saying he was a bad president but he is not as great as republicans make him out to be.
Only thing this asshole is worryed about is his taxes...taxing his millions of dollars... so what ..welcome to the club....most of these people were saying ...wtf is he talking about fag ass regan for..that fuck is dead..what the hell is he going to do for us now..sean stay in the future ass hole..
but sean is a journalist and a radio show host, he is bound to have someone controverial on his programs. that's the name of the game, every journalist interviews controverial ppl. does that make them guilty too? most ppl would say no.
sean interviews them, he doesn't serve on a board along side them, he doesn't represent them in a legal case. so it is not the same thing when you try to say sean is guilty by association because he had someone like hal turner on his program
it's so not the same thing when a sean has someone on his show that is a controversial figure because if you want to make that legit you would have to say that EVERYONE that has someone controversial on their show then they too are guilty by association.
in other words, all the other journalist in the world that have bad ppl on their show are bad too... you probably wouldn't agree. so then it's not fair to single out sean.
According to the CBO, the current effective federal tax rate of the middle classes is roughly 8-18%, and the current effective rate of the top 20% of is 26%. The
estimates by FT/NST supporters put the effective rate under the FT/NST at 19-21% across the board. Do the simple math to see who would be paying more under the
"Real wages are 10.3%, 9.5%, and 9.2% higher in years 1, 10, and 25, respectively than would otherwise be the case. "-fairtaxorg
Ahhh, sounds great, doesn't it? But again, they are averaging all classes together -- let's look at the true picture:
Real wages of those making $10k-$150K up roughly 0.3 - 3.7%, real wages of those making less than $10k up roughly 13%, while the real wages of those making more
What ever your opinions and economic cross-fi analysis, you all have an opportunity to experiment with something fundamental to your daily lives. If it fails, you can fall back on the old system. Take a chance, it could be the last one!
The income tax system punishes hard work by confiscating the fruits of our labor while the Fair Tax would punish us for enjoying the fruits of our labor.
I feel our federal government should be doing neither. A small federal government limited by the constitution, prohibited from directly taxing the people, is the legacy the founding fathers have left us. Preserve Liberty, join the Ron Paul Revolution.
I know my candidate very well. Ron Paul has mentioned that the Fair Tax would be an improvement but it is not his plan. Ron Paul is for eliminating the IRS and the federal income tax and replacing them with nothing. His idea of a fair tax is no tax. Watch the Tonight Show interview.
Obviously, "No Tax" would be nice, however it's not an option. Whose going to pay for the maintenance of national monuments? What about the salaries of presidents, senators, congressman, and other federal officials? Not to mention the military. Yeah, there will never be such thing as NO tax. But I am in support of a much different tax system. I still wish I could get behind ROn Paul - it's an exciting campaign but I don't agree at all with his foreign policy views.
Not calling for "no tax" but "no federal income tax". Eliminating income tax, revenues to the treasury would be equal to year 2000 level. Paul's plan to down size big government would pay for cut in revenues and still leave enough to pay down debt.
As for foreign policy, I believe his views consider serious consideration
But the Fair Tax replaces the entire US Tax Code, not just the Personal Income Tax. Then we can work on fighting spending and lower the rate. Comparing the Fair Tax to Ron Paul's plan is apples to oranges.
The "Fair Tax" idea is a scam created by the Church of Scientology because they were at war with the IRS for not granting their cult tax exempt status. Google up the facts if you want to read more. OpinionJournal has a recent article that exposes the whole thing.
The "Fair Tax" idea is a scam created by the Church of Scientology because they were at war with the IRS for not granting their cult tax exempt status. Google up the facts if you want to read more. OpinionJournal has a recent article that exposes the whole thing.
The embedded tax (Agreed upon by ivy league economist to be 23%) that you already pay is ELIMINATED to be replaced by the fair tax which, you guessed it, is 23%. One comment gets a tax rate of 30%, where did this come from? As far as local and state taxes are concened. Pressure from the public would make them get in line with the federal gov. and adopt the same method of collecting taxes.
factcheck(dot)org proves this does not benefit middle-income taxpayers. Read Un-Spinning the Fair Tax, May 07. Other Accounting experts come to the same conclusion as Pres. Bush's own conservative task force which said this plan hurts middle-income and gave more tax cuts to the rich. And the PREBATE is another WELFARE handout. And small business owners will be free to cheat by keeping the extra 30% and not recording sales.
Of course accountants would not support a bill that would force them to find new jobs. Fairtax dot org addresses all of the concerns expressed in these comments
Accountants would actually be able to spend thier time building wealth for people with all their new money. It would be awesome for people! Accountants support it - they don't like spending thier time doing tax returns; they'd rather be financial planners.
The Fair-Tax is the Unfair-Tax Scam. LIE#1 The 23% National Sales Tax they tell you is a Flat-Lie unless you failed middle-school math. Yes the book uses a math trick to suck you into thinking 23% instead of 30%. It is a 30% National Sales Tax plus Local Sales Taxes which average 6% for a total 36% sales tax. The average American pays less than 25% federal tax now.
FairTax would use an exclusive list price - product prices would include the tax. If a product is $100, $23=tax, or 23%. Opponents like this guy are saying that the price would actually be $77 and the tax would be $23. Of course, $23 of $77 = 30%. Who didn't get past 6th grade? YOU.
they wave their hands around this point by theorizing that 22% of a product's cost, on average, already includes taxes through a trickle-down effect...
so after you get rid of those taxes, a product that did cost $100 would go down to $78. then if you add the fairtax back in, the product is a little over $100.
i like that it gets rid of the IRS and greatly reduces complexity in the tax code, but 23% is too high considering that the IRS only collects 75% of taxes as is.
The book says that the rate could actually decrease to lower than 23% because of the economy boost. I love it. I mean if you think about it, how often do you purchase big ticket items? We'd be able to save way more than we do now. No forms to fill out, no stress around April 15th.

"...It is certainly true that after the FairTax becomes law there will be no more withholding from your paycheck for any federal taxes. What you earn is what you get. This is not to say that your gross pay will equal what it was before the FairTax. This will depend on what your employer does when the embedded costs represented by the tax burden you have passed on to your employer disappear..."
Updated version in Fair Tax:The Truth- most probable scenario is that people's gross pay will be at least what it was before the implementation of the Fair Tax, while prices drop roughly 11%.
Fair Tax is out of the pan and into the fire! Where is the Constitutional authority? The IRS is illegal and so would a national sales tax be. Like a FOX they will try to sell you another NEW DEAl! FAIR TAX will only lead to servitude as special interests and big business get exemptions ! ! !
So you suggest we all refuse to pay taxes? You go first. Taxes grew for 75 years, we can't drop them to zero overnight. The FairTax will display the cost of the fed gov on each receipt. Any rise in taxes will be blatent and will get people mad. Like gas prices posted on signs, this gov expense will be in everyone's face. Once that happens, we can start lowering taxes, and not before.
The Fair Tax is absolutely constitutional. The criteria are: Indirect tax (any tax on purchases is indirect), uniform throughout the several states (check), and not imposed on exports (Fair Tax applies only to goods purchased in the US).
Tax will always be a way to defraud the deceived ones. Throughout history only slaves paid tax on labor or property. Our resources should and plenty to pay for our services but we are rob of them buy the corporations. The all planet is in debt, to whom? is the question. Democracy= dictatorship by the bankster.
