You are viewing a single comment's thread:

There is no "fair tax". Taxes are one of the worst ways to do anything. After stealing someone's money, or threatening their lives for that money, whatever you do with it is already less than desirable.

If you own a home, than you are set for a place to sleep. But, if you put property tax on that place, then if you do not make enough money, your house is gone. You have to start moving fast enough just to stay still.

If you are talking about "wealth redistribution" because the income disparity is not fair, then we are talking about envy, and that leads to bad results.

Sorry, I thought it was more widely known. I am talking about https://fairtax.org . This has been a US House of Repesentatives bill that, usually filed first as HR-1, has never, to my knowledge, got out of committee for a vote in 10 years or so. Lost some traction when the creator of it passed away, but I see there are current posts on their web site.
