  • McCain obviously has no idea what he is talking about. He states the FairTax as an exclusive tax which it IS NOT. It is inclusive.

    Politicians just have a hard time swallowing the fact they will have to start paying taxes on every purchase they make just like everybody else. Say goodbye to subsidies and lobbyists. We won't need them anymore.

  • Stupid McCain, Ron Paul FTW. I wish he had won/

  • McCain supports megacorporations, and MCs would get RAPED with a flat tax system. That means less money in their pockets, so bye bye yacht, bye bye billion dollar jet, bye bye island paradise, bye bye POWER. They aren't going to want to let it go, which is why I hope this goes through, but given the influence MCs have on our government, I highly doubt it will.

  • mccain doesn't want a flat-tax simply because it would end all the loopholes that the rich and powerful use to get away with not paying them.

  • russia adopted it in 2001 and it dramatically increase government revenue.

  • this video is in reference to the FAIR tax not the FLAT tax.

  • @cresidue What editing?

  • Why don't you just answer the fucking question?

  • Terrible sound quality, learn how to edit video & audio especially!

  • How would they carry more of the burden?

    This is why the FairTax has the prebate.

    No one pays the FairTax up to the poverty level.

    Poor can live tax free and the elderly on fixed incomes also receive much needed tax relief.

    FairTax replaces the current tax system so they either pay the embedded taxes on top of the current taxes or just pay the FairTax.

    Read the bill, there is much to be learned.

  • John McCain will favor any kind of income tax because the only thing cares about is keeping the people in check rather than the other around. Politicians like McCain love big government and big business and unlimited deficit spending and income taxes are what make it all possible. He doesn't like the Fair Tax because it empowers us to retain our wealth and to keep weasels like him in check, or in retirement.
