FLAT TAX AND FAIRTAX --
We need a new tax code. Our tax code can not be fixed, it has to be thrown out, entirely. Every word.
Problem is, taxes are the playground of lying bastards. The cute solutions like Fairtax and flat tax sound great though!

| FLAT AS FLAT TAX |
Flat tax is as flat as Dog Bounty Hunter's wife.

| FAIRTAX 300 WORDS = 2 TRILLION DOLLARS IN HIDDEN TAXES. |
WHAT YOU SEE IS NOT WHAT YOU GET
Fairtax books, speeches, videos, and web sites tell you it's a "simple personal retail consumption tax" to replace all other fed taxes.
Funny -- because we have offered 50,000 dollars if they can show us that in the legislation. We have offered this for years now -- they have never shown anything in Fairtax legislation to prove Fairtax is a simple personal retail sales tax to replace all other fed taxes.
It's not there. You thought it would be right? Go try to find it. It's not there.
Call me crazy, but if Fairtax is a personal retail sales tax to replace all other fed taxes, shouldn't it say that SOMEWHERE?
Why are these other huge taxes in the fine print? President Bush Tax Advisory Panel found all these other huge taxes -- wasn't that hard, they just read all the documents, very closely.
Who has to pay the taxes that Chicago city council would pay?
How about that 12 billion or so Texas would have to pay on pensions and wage expenditures? Oh -- you do. You have to pay. Fairtax says so -- see, you need to read it closely.
Carefully inserted, in about 300 words, are massive "other" taxes, like a wage expenditure tax on cities. That's 1.5 or so trillion dollar "detail" hidden in fine print tricks, as we call them.
We show you how slick these lying bastards were to put that in. First, see some cities, and how much they would have to pay -- as a conservative estimate...
Oh, it might SEEM to be a retail sales tax. Boortz sure as hell tells suckers that's what it is "a very very simple personal consumption tax". Uh huh -- lying bastard. We show you what Neal won't.
Fairtax is a personal retail sales tax, right? Uh no. Part of it is, only a part. For example, Fairtax has a few "tiny" taxes on top of, in addition to the retail tax. So trivial, so minor, you can see why they forgot. Like these
A small part.
Oh tiny things -- like the 3Billion dollar tax New York City would have to pay, on wages and pension expenditure.
Oh you didn't know that? Neal forgot to tell you? Really? Fairtax forgot too - in 10 years, 1000 or so videos, 15 books, two of them by Boortz, thousands of speeches. They "forgot" a few things.
Like 2 trillion dollars in "other taxes" that have nothing to do with retail sales. Yeah, minor things!
- is this a personal retail sales tax?
A tax on capital investments. Your city and county have to pay it.
How is that a retail sales tax?
If your city builds a library for 20 million, or a jail, or a sewer extension -- those are "capital investments". Yes, your city would have to pay a 23% tax on that.
Only in the footnote do you find out, they want that paid -- in advance. DId you even know they taxed city county and states on capital investments? They do.
That's 200 billion dollar tax --payable in advance. In a footnote.
How's that for transparent?
How's that for a personal retail sales tax?
How about this -- is this a personal retail sales tax? -> 
How about this -- is this a personal retail sales tax? ->
  If you ONLY had the above text, from the legislation itself, it's not so clear what they actual mean. So you need to check all their documents. And other "definitions"  
_____________________________________________________________
|
Without these massive other taxes- if Fairtax only taxed personal retail sales like they claim -- the tax rate would be 89%. Fairtax used fine print tricks, inserted huge "other" taxes that are impossible and unconstitutional, so their math would add up.
___________________________________________________
That's right -- if Fairtax was actually a simple retail sales tax, the tax rate would be 89%. Neal "forgot" to mention that in his books.
________________________________________________________________
We first realized Neal lied his ass off when Dale Jorgenson politely repudiated Boortz's claims. Jorgenson is the guy Neal said, in his book, did that "extensive" research. Fairtax was based on that research!!
So where was it? Did Jorgenson agree with that?
Well -- CNN did talk to the guy. CNN found Dale Jorgenson, just weeks after the Fairtax Book came out.
Boortz made it seem like Jorgenson of Harvard proved all those great sounding claims. Uh -- no.
Jorgenson specifically said any national sales tax would NOT decrease prices, like Boortz claimed. Boortz lied, and he knew he was lying, because when Jorgenson ratted Fairtax out on CNN, Neal went right on lying about all that "research"

HOW THEY TAX BREAST CANCER, CITIES, ETC?
Here -- they tell you. Read it closely, it's literal. Fairtax tells you. Yes, in the books they say the opposite. SO what? The books are not the legislation. The videos are not the legislation. The speeches are not the legislation.
YOu have to get it from the legislation and supporting documents. Here is how they did it.....
Yes they told you. They tax all consumption without exception.
Who has to pay it?
The "person" using it, has to pay.
What is the definition of consumption? Does that mean retail sales? HELL NO. It means all wages, pensions, cancer surgeries, even all medicare expenditures.
The person using the services or goods is liable. Yes -- they are. They told you that in their documents. They can't help if Neal lied to your dumb ass and made you think it was a simple retail sales tax.
-- that they tax "all consumption expenditures" according to NIPA. And they specifically say they tax all government expenditures and investments
Do you know what NIPA defines as personal consumption and governmental consumption expenditures? It means essentially whatever the f Fairtax wants it to mean, because they say "That consists, for the most part, of what the NIPA defines as "personal consumption expenditures" and "government consumption expenditures".
Yes, you have to piece together these lying bastards puzzle. Like President Bush did. But it's there. And they have nothing about a simple retail personal tax to replace all other fed taxes. That is NOT there.
Look closely at Fairtax supporting documents.... is this a personal retail sales tax?
Tax on government "investment"? What does that mean?
That means capital investment. In a footnote, we find out they want that in advance -- "we adopt a prepay approach". Pretty sneaky.
But they had to make their math add up.
Do you think the city council in Dallas Texas will pay 150 million dollars or more in wage and pension expenditure taxes?
If so, you are the perfect Fairtax sucker. But if you realize cancer victims won't, can't and should not pay 40,000 extra in fed taxes, just because they got sick, maybe you arent as stupid as Neal Boortz hopes you are.
Welcome to the world of fine print tricks.
__________________________________________________
Fairtax could have written their plan in 300 words. Only 300 words really matter -- but that would be too obvious.
Bet you think Fairtax is a retail sales tax of some time. That's what they told you in 2 million deceptive words. But only 300 words matter, and they hid those. We found them.
___________________________________________________
______________________________________________
HOW IS DALLAS A PERSON?
Remember, Fairtax claims they are a "simple personal retail sales tax". We know over 2 Trillion dollars of Fairtax has nothing to do with personal retail sales -- but how the hell is Dallas a person?
By this definition --
So Dallas is a person. So is NYC, Chicago, Keokuk Iowa, Eugene Oregon, and 20,000 other cities. This is their "legal basis" for 1.5 Trillion dollars in taxes. You heard right, the word in Section 2a, sub section 7, that one word, is their legal basis for 1.4 trillion dollars in taxes.
See what we mean, by fine print trick?
SO they tell you they tax governments on their " investments" -- capital investments. Did they not tell you, if you read all their documents? Yes, they did.
It's not their fault you believed Neal Boortz. Fairtax official documents told you - carefully, in 300 words out of 2 million.
Did you know cities and states are "special" kinds of "persons"? I bet you didn't know that. Special persons have to pay "certain" taxes.
This chart shows the INCREASE in city county and state taxes, that would occur, per Fairtax fine print! It comes from testimony to Ways Means in June of 2011.
Remember that about this chart -- it's the INCREASE in state and local taxes. Cities have to pay about 900 billion in total. And so cities would have to increase their tax rates by that much. States, counties, the same thing, over and over.
That is how Fairtax math adds up.
Fairtax refuses requests to explain how much any city, county or state will pay, other than what's in the fine print tricks already. Davis Kendall and James Bennett, both Fairtax spokesmen, admit these huge taxes are in the fine print, but will not tell us even an estimation of how much any city would owe.
But these are 23% taxes on all "expenditures" -- other than education. They never told cities about it! Never told states about it. It's only cleverly in their fine print trick and "assumptions".
William Gale, PhD Stanford,
FOUND THE 300 WORDS AND MATH TRICKS
And as Fairtax own fine print -- cleverly placed -- says "We assume city and states will raise their tax rates appropriately"
Now you see why President Bush Tax Panel would not pretend Fairtax could possibly impose these huge taxes on all city county and states. No city is going to pay. They don't even know about it -- no one told them!
Fairtax tells everyone it's a simple personal retail sales tax. So no mayor or governor has any idea about these huge other taxes hidden in a few words here or there.
Fairtax tax if a fraud -- political theater -- because their revenue is literally based on gathering, collecting, all these cancer taxes, these wage and pension taxes, all these hidden taxes, have to stay, so the math adds up. But they know that's bullshit.
Texas would have to pay 20 million dollars in operational expenditure taxes
just for operating this prison. Is that a personal retail sales tax?
___________________________________________________
The quick way to tell Fairtax is a fraud is to realize it would tax a woman with breast cancer, who may make 20K in income, a 40,000 dollar fed cancer tax. That's 40K extra, that she would be personally liable for.
Don't believe Fairtax taxes all cancer surgery? Really? Well, it's in the fine print.
Fairtax is very clever --vague, disingenuous but President Bush Tax Panel could spot them. You can too.
______________________________________________________
But that is the tip -- the tiny tip -- of the iceberg.
How about the wage and pension tax? All cities counties and states have to pay 23% tax on all wages, pensions and operational expenditures.
Did you know that?
That doesn't seem so bad does it? Just a definition-- "certain wages"? Wait till you see how huge the term "wage" is, in Fairtax fine print by lying bastards.....
Watch how they do it...
Do you doubt they actually tax wages and pension expenditures from the above? Who would have 1.5 Trillion in taxes, in goofy definitions like that, and hide the fact?
Well -- Fairtax would, and did. They did lie, they did hide it, and they did try to fool you. See these clever comments from their other documents.
And then...
These other "explanations" are in Fairtax supporting documents.
This not in dispute, by the way. It's in the fine print. Fairtax leaders insist these taxes are "clear enough" and "simply fair".
 |
| 6 Billion Dollar capital project in California. Fairtax has a 23 % tax on all government "investments" --in advance. |
David Kendall, a Fairtax spokesmen, admitted these massive taxes on wages, pensions, and operational expenditures are in Fairtax. He has to-- they are in writing.
 |
| Kendall "We are just asking city and states to pay" |
But Kendall tries to explain it this way "We are just asking city and states to pay" That's right, just asking. Did they notify cities about it? No. Did they say it anywhere - at all -- clearly?
No.
Did they list examples or even give an address where cities and states will have to send the $? No. It's only in those cleverly worded fine print tricks.
How will cities pay? Read that fine print carefully --by raising their tax rates.
That's right -- raise their tax rates.
They tell you, however, if you read all their documents. Somewhere, in footnotes, in fine print tricks, in definitions, in "assumptions" they do tell you. Just read all million or so words, and ignore the lies Boortz and others told. Only go by the fine print tricks.
Here -- they show you. Did you read it? Is it their fault you did not read it?
Neal can lie to you all he wants -- and he does. Very simple retail sales tax, tax on personal consumption, yada yada. All bullshit. Only a part of Fairtax is from personal retail consumption, and Neal knows it.
Oh part of Fairtax is a retail sales tax. But only a part, about -1/3 of Fairtax is from retail sales.

WHY NEALS LIES ARE LEGAL AND NOT LEGISLATION
No -- it does not matter what Neal was paid to tell you. He was paid to lie to you -- and did. But his lies don't matter, Fairtax fine print tells you, in 300 words out of the million so words that mislead you - what they actually tax.
Neal lied to you legally. It's political theater -- and he is great at it. Lie -- hell yes he did. He told you Fairtax was a very very simple retail consumption tax. He knew better, at least he did after Jorgenson repudiated Fairtax. You can tell Neal knew because how Neal tried to parse words about Jorgenson ratting them out.
As President Bush Tax Panel reported, without these "other" taxes, the hidden goofy impossible taxes, Fairtax would have to admit a 89% tax rate. If they did not have all these other taxes -- which are impossible anyway -- they would need an 89% tax rate.
Now that you know about taxes on cities, counties, and states, taxes on cancer victims, etc, Still think that statement by Fairtax.org is true? This one?
They don't tell you about the cancer taxes either, but they are there. That is how their math adds up. They add up all "consumption" as defined by NIPA -- oh you didnt know that? Well, they told you?
Is it their fault you didn't read it closely enough?
Pretty cool to have such few words hide such massive taxes.
Which is why we call it -- fine print tricks.

| KOTLIKOFF TOLD THE TRUTH, AS DECEPTIVELY AS HE COULD |
Laurence J Kotlikoff wrote much of the deceptive BS in Fairtax documents for Beacon Hill. But did he lie?
Not really, sure he misled, that's what he was paid to do. His articles tell you -- they all consumption as defined by NIPA. He even listed the various parts of consumption. Is it his fault you didn't find his document and read page 666 -667?
Neal and others may tell you Fairtax completely untaxes the poor-- etc. Like this recent tweet from Fairtax.org itself!
But in the legislation, there are no exceptions.
___________________________________________________
_____________________________________________
Remember -- Boortz says "the best thing" about Fairtax is that it's transparent! Still think Fairtax is transparent?
Hell no it's not transparent. James Bennett, Fairtax spokesmen, claims those massive taxes on cities and states are "clear enough" because city official are used to reading fine print. Bennett said Fairtax has "no plans" to tell city county and states about the details, other than what is in the legislation already -- those goofy definitions in section 2a subsection 7, for example.
 |
| BENNETT, FAIRTAX SPOKESMEN, "WE HAVE NO PLANS TO GIVE FURTHER INFORMATION TO CITY AND STATES" |
The "research" Neal tries to sell as proving Fairtax, was done by Dale Jorgenson, according to Neal himself, in the Fairtax Book. Neal's slick lies in that book give the impression Harvard's Dale Jorgenson proved all these great sounding things. Nothing could be further from the truth.
FRAUD ABOUT THE POOR.
Fairtax apparently pays someone to tweet every few minutes about Fairtax magic. He could be on his own, but he seems to say he is with FTN.org.
Here he claims Americans will get the "necessities" of life "FREE OF TAX"
Fairtax apparently pays someone to tweet every few minutes about Fairtax magic. He could be on his own, but he seems to say he is with FTN.org.

Not so -- Fairtax specifically says there are no exceptions whatsoever. Remember? And that "the person using or consuming" the goods or services is liable, without exception.
The "prebate" is what these guys are lying about -- hoping suckers think the prebate pays taxes on all "necessities". Hell no. The prebate is 200 a month, period. It does not go up a dime, much less 50000 dollars, just because you have cancer. It's still 200 a month.
And of course, these lying bastards KNOW that. But the way they talk, this "prebate" will cover the tax on all necessities. Lying bastards, they really are.

NEAL ON FOX NEWS
A FOX news reporter interview Neal Boortz, and innocently asked him if cancer patients would owe a 23% tax on their health care. "Of course" Neal said.
But surely you exempt the poor, right? No, Neal said- - quickly changing the subject. When the reporter asked how a poor person could pay this tax on cancer surgery, Neal did not say the prebate -- he knew that was 200 a month only. Neal said "Oh don't worry, we will save her (the cancer victim) so much, it won't matter"
Yes, it will matter.

Answers:
1) C. The breast cancer victim would owe 46,000 dollars as fairtax fed tax, just on the "consumption" of medical goods and services.
2) C. Dallas would owe 70 million dollars as fed "Fairtax."
