The fairtax is a Washington Sewer Rat creation

I cannot imagine why you support the Washington Sewer Rat creation called the fairtax (H.R. 25), which is intentionally designed to tighten and enlarge the iron fist of our federal government around the necks of America's productive citizens and businesses.
It is absolutely beyond my comprehension to understand why you support a tax which taxes an ordinary working person on the sale of the property they have in their own labor and also requires that person to register with government prior to selling their labor. And this is in addition to that person being required under the "fairtax" to keep any records and reports the federal government may dream up with another requirement that a sale tax return must be filed every single month by a person who dares to sell the property they have in their own labor.
What is up with you Judy?

If we can make the majority of America’s families dependent upon a federal government check, [the alleged fair tax’s family consumption entitlement] 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 Washington Establishment’s Marxist game plan, a plan to establish a federal plantation and redistribute the bread which America’s labor and business has produced.

Consumers pay the FairTax, not the businesses, same way and at the same time as they collect state, county and city sales taxes in 45 states.
The FairTax doesn't tax "production", "production" is totally exempt from the FairTax.
Wow. All this time you've been attacking the FairTax and you didn't even understand how it works, who it taxes and for what!!
Gee whiz, that's "SAD!"
Common, but still "SAD!"
Nothing I have written is "bunk". Is that why you failed to quote what you allege is bunk? Additionally, Judy, you are the only one who used the word "production".
It seems that your only recourse in debating the alleged "fairtax" is to make stuff up and constantly misdirect. I thought that type of tactic was beneath you Judy.
Real tax reform begins with the following 32 words.
The Fair Share Balanced Budget Amendment
“SECTION 1. The Sixteenth Amendment is hereby repealed and Congress is henceforth forbidden to lay ``any`` tax or burden calculated from profits, gains, interest, salaries, wages, tips, inheritances or any other lawfully realized money.
NOTE: these words would return us to our founding father’s ORIGINAL TAX PLAN as they intended it to operate! They would also end the failed experiment with allowing Congress to lay and collect taxes calculated from lawfully earned "incomes" which now oppresses America‘s economic engine and robs the bread which working people have earned when selling their labor!

“…..with all these blessings, what more is necessary to make us a happy and a prosperous people? Still one thing more, fellow-citizens—a wise and frugal Government, which shall restrain men from injuring one another, shall leave them otherwise free to regulate their own pursuits of industry and improvement and shall not take from the mouth of labor the bread it has earned. This is the sum of good government, and this is necessary to close the circle of our felicities“. Thomas Jefferson, First Inaugural Address
Real tax reform is found in the Fair Share Balanced Budget Amendment

Good bye, jwk.
Judy,
Taxing American's productive citizens and taxing production are two entirely different things.
Hope that clears the matter up for you.
In addition, the alleged fairtax is a Washington Sewer Rat creation intentionally designed to tighten and enlarge the iron fist of sewer rats around the necks of America's productive citizens and businesses.
Why do you support allowing the federal government tax the property which working people have in the sale of their own labor?
Real tax reform is found in the Fair Share Balanced Budget Amendment.

"The property which every man has in his own labor, as it is the original foundation of all other property, so it is the most sacred and inviolable. The patrimony of the poor man lies in the strength and dexterity of his own hands; and to hinder him from employing this strength and dexterity in what manner he thinks proper, without injury to his neighbor, is a plain violation of this most sacred property."___ Butchers’ Union Co. v. Crescent CityCo., 111 U.S. 746 (1884)
