The primary problem with the Fair Tax is that a shift from an income tax to a consumption tax would have a considerable negative impact upon our economy, even if it were done in a revenue neutral fashion.

And that's without even considering the disparate effects on various income groups, especially the middle class who would bear the brunt of this disguised attempt to cut taxes for the wealthy.

How the hell is telling a guy who literally says I DON'T WANT TO HEAR DEBATE BECAUSE MY OPINION IS CORRECT to leave "trolling", Ernest?
Leave Wink

More seriously, your one word post did nothing to advance discussion and also was effectively an "I'm right therefore there's nothing else to be said" type post as well.  Neither you nor the OP get to control what is said about the Fair Tax in this thread, and I expect everyone to be reasonably civil about it as well as in other threads.
