Equality?

[DuncanONeil]

For the life of me I can not understand how you can harbor such a basic misunderstanding of what we are talking about. Especially when in the very message you respond to it clearly states the FairTax terminate income tax. Yet your claim of double taxation is based on paying income tax and the FairTax.
In addition to the income tax the FairTax eliminates:

• Social Security Tax
• Corporate Taxes
• All other payroll taxes
  
• estate
• gift
• capital gains
• alternative minimum
• Medicare, and
• self-employment,
  

Again THERE IS NO DOUBLE TAXATION!!!!!!!!!!!!!

For the basis of clarification.

Income tax occurs currently. If I have money I have saved from now, that is post-tax money, and I have paid income tax on it. If fair tax were to be implemented and I go out and spend that money, I am being double taxed on it, no ifs and ands about it.

So while UnfairTax terminates income tax it doesn't do so retroactively and hence doesn't solve this double taxation problem.

Does not occur! The FairTax terminates income tax. It is not an additional tax!!!
