Oh yes, most Republicans on ALIPAC support the FairTax, most Independents on ALIPAC support the FairTax, and even some Democrats on ALIPAC support the FairTax. Everyone with 2 live brain cells still connected supports the FairTax.

And what evidence do you have to support that claim? I'd suggest to you that the posters on here are a fair representation of the lack of support the plan has. You may get a smidgen of support with your misinformation and ignoring of all the facts, but I've yet to see it here on ALIPAC.

Contrary to what you said, I'd say most folks with "2 live brain cells still connected" that have done their own research oppose the unfair tax plan. The plan creates more problems than it fixes as anyone doing their research independent of your misinformation can tell. Furthermore, you only offer what you consider the positives to the plan and completely ignore the pitfalls of which there are many.

You keep selling but I don't think anyone on here is buying. Perhaps it's time you stop advertising here and shop for a better market. Just a suggestion.

What evidence do I have? Common sense, Intelligence, Loyalty to our people and businesses, Trump Supporters and Cruz Supporters. There are very few Republicans who don't support the FairTax and they are either the people who work in the federal income tax business, they don't understand how the FairTax works, or they're mandate authoritarians who want the government to spy on our citizens and give handouts to non-citizens. At this point, there's very few of those, most of them older white males.

Your generic response and obfuscation does not answer my question.

I said, "Judy, out of curiosity, have you found anyone here on ALIPAC that supports your 'unfair' tax plan?"

You said, "Oh yes, most Republicans on ALIPAC support the FairTax, most Independents on ALIPAC support the FairTax, and even some Democrats on ALIPAC support the FairTax. Everyone with 2 live brain cells still connected supports the FairTax."

So, instead of obfuscating the question with the response "Common sense, Intelligence, Loyalty to our people" blah, blah, blah. How about answering the actual question!

Once again I ask you, what evidence do you have that most ALIPAC members support your so-called fair tax plan?

You made the claim, now back it up with hard data, please.

I don't have any hard-data. I'm not aware of any hard data poll conducted by ALIPAC about the FairTax. I can't imagine ALIPACERS in particular not supporting the FairTax because if for nothing else, the enormous contribution the FairTax makes towards ending illegal immigration.

Okay, then you shouldn't attempt to pass something off as fact when you don't actually know that it is. If you would have stated your position as opinion, I wouldn't have really had much of an argument other than to say, I disagree.

Let this be one of those learning moments. In the future don't attempt to pass something off as fact unless you have evidence to prove your claim.

It's just Judy's dream!

I suppose you could put up a poll. But then, how many would volunteer their party affiliation? It wouldn't be a reliable poll.

How does the different method of taxation end "illegal immigration" (trespassing)? I guess you could argue that it forces them to pay taxes like citizens and legal aliens do. But that would just legitimize their being here. It would not deter them. Another unsupported claim!
