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!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Does not occur! The FairTax terminates income tax. It is not an additional tax!!!
Income taxes exist now. FairTax doesn't retroactively eliminate previous income taxes.

If I have money in the bank which I have earned and paid income tax on in 2009, and still have that money in the bank that is money that has already been taxed. If we switch to FairTax in 2011 and I spend that money then, I'm now paying 30% sales tax on money I've already paid income taxes on. Despite the fact that because of the switch there is no income tax in 2011.
