awesome.
To be honest I don't think our current tax code is right, but I haven't invested into any time
Don't remember contending the Fair Tax wasn't VAT-related, only that implementation was debatable in how it's proposed from Volcker.
But if you're compelled to "win" on minor issues - awesome! Please, enjoy the spoils of your pyrrhic victory.
whoops.. I didn't finish my last sentence..
I haven't invested any time into looking at what would be a better tax system. A bunch of my friends are on to the fair tax thing, but we're all cheapskates so I think we'd just buy used like normal and not pay the tax..
I don't know. I just don't have the time to invest into looking. However, I need to sometime. I've just catapulted myself into the top 7% of all earners in the US.
