Welcome aboard! You are the first of all the places I have posted about the FairTax that has had a positive response.
Is it possible to ask you if you have a favorite part of the FairTax?

On the other hand if everyone is paid the same, how is there anything left for investing? Further married or extended families are instantly better of than the rest of the country!!

I think that is why I would prefer the fair tax
