Yes. And that disproves your assertion that There are very few "embedded" federal taxes outside of federal income tax.: There are countless federal taxes embedded in every consumer article you purchase.

The quote was: “More than half the price of a loaf of bread is made up of 151 taxes that have accumulated between the wheat field and grocer’s shelf.” Are you really going to suggest a major number of those taxes are not federally imposed?

Aside from that, I see you are still unwilling to discuss the consequences connected to the alleged fairtax entitlement called “the family consumption allowance”.

Tell us, Judy, under the alleged fairtax and its family consumption entitlement, how many more “poor working people” would have a vested interest in voting for progressives, socialists and communists during election time who would promise to work to increase the family consumption entitlement? Is this not how Fifth Column members of Congress stay in power in our nation’s poorest voting districts ____ by offering their constituency free government cheese?


Tell us Judy, why are you so eager to create another entitlement, which would help our Fifth Column members in Congress to remain in power by promising our nation’s poor during each election time to alter the fairtax and enlarge the family consumption entitlement?


JWK

If we can make 51 percent of America’s population dependent upon the federal government for its subsistence [the fairtax family consumption allowance check] we can then bribe them for their vote, keep ourselves in power and keep the remaining portion of America’s productive population enslaved to pay the bills ____ Our Fifth Column’s long term strategy ___ a plan to establish a federal plantation that confiscates and then redistributes the bread which labor, business and investors have worked to produce
