I read the book four times. Yes, there IS a tax on services, genius. Plus, you will pay this same insane tax -- the worlds hightest sales tax -- on your RENT, yes RENT. And all your car insurance. And on ALL medical cost -- including cancer surgery, nursing home care, ect. And on utility bills, gasoline, etc. Don't worry, no one is seriously trying to pass this. Its a farce and they wont dare have hearings on it. They would look like lunatics if the "details" were exposed.

MarkDoublas - you removed some or your comments - why? Sounds like you have legitimate criticisms.

@dtvgmedia No dumb ass, taxing the government, you stupid shit, is bogus fakery. Government can't pay taxes you fucking idiot, they would have to raise taxes to do it.

And Fairtax knows this, thats why the fake fuckers have hid it in the fine print.

Furthermore, 300 billion of this tax, governments would have to pay IN ADVANCE -- government has to pay taxes on salaries it pays, IN ADVANCE.

IT's goofy as fuck, and they know it.

@MarkDouglasC and your 35 other youtube aliases

What is the difference between you buying yourself a loaf of bread and your state buying one for you? Besides the fact that you pay the government to buy the loaf of bread, nothing. You consume it either way, and both you and the state currently pay the embedded cost of income capital gain, corporate income and other taxes.

Exempting government consumption will cause every one will ask the government to give them everything.

@brigg You know FT basic plan is a massive tax on city and state spending, even government wages, right? (See their books fine print) Can the federal governnment tax city and state spending? No way. Cities and states wont go for it. And the USSC won't let them. Fairtax "leaders" know this. That is WHY they hid this massive tax on city and state , in their fine print. Go call ANY mayor or governor office. They have NO IDEA the FT has massive new taxes in it.

@bigj200016 wrong moron. These idiots know their plan is bullshit, THAT is the main point. Why do you think they have avoided hearings under oath for 13 years.

Did you know the Fairtax books say the biggest source of revenue will be FROM the government?? Yes, the government will become the BIGGEST taxpayer.

Try to grasp the absurdity of that. It's beyond insane. And its the reason they avoid hearins under oath, they know their math is pure BS, and won't answer questions under oath

@MarkDouglasC You seem to be missing the biggest point of all. As it stands now, prices of goods and services are artifically inflated by on average 22% by the costs of the current system. That includes both the actual moneys forwarded to the federal government and the cost of compliance with the current insane system. It is expected that the prices of goods and services will decline by about the same amount of the sales tax. FAIR TAX NOW!!!
