______________________________
Google total US retail sales tax --for a given year -- is the easy way. Takes twenty seconds.
You can also dig into the the lying bastards tricky ass "assumptions," tricky ass "footnotes," and tricky ass hilarious "math equations".
Economist Bruce Bartlett did not even need to look it up -- he already know within a trillion or so what US personal retail sales were. But of course Bruce looked it up anyway
He immediately knew Fairtax lying bastards (not his words) would need at least 90% retail tax to replace all other taxes
______________________________
If fact if state and local taxes where considered, for example of 10% --depending what was subjected to sale tax, would be 90% or 100%
It's just absurd.
Since new car would be taxed by states and this Fiartax goofy fraud --a tax that doubled the the overall price would be possible
And guess what -- the lying bastards at Fairtax knew that the entire -- the entire - time.
They were not stupid --they were lying.
Not everyone was in on the fraud. Only the lying bastards who wrote it and wrote the fraudulent slogans.
Fools - including supposedly educated folks -- fell for it because
1) The lying bastards made it sound great
2) They lying bastards claimed 22 million in research
3) The lying bastards talked fools into praising it
4) The lying bastards especially did not make it easy for fools to find the "tricky shit."
Still -- any high school economics teach should have a easy time checking --all they had to do, as we show above - is google total US personal retail sales tax.
If ONLY personal retail sales are taxed --that is the central lie by the lying bastards -- the total possible revenue to the federal government would not even be enough to pay for US military expenses, research, retirement.
It could not possibly pay for Social Security ( as the bastards sometimes suggested) .
In fact the fed gov would need 4 or 5 times that retail sales tax!! The lying bastards knew this-- from day one!
It could be for example, Neal Boortz was just stupid about it. He could have been fooled too. Not likely, because Neal was tricky as hell about it. Neal was an attorney, very high IQ, a pilot, and a supposed expert on Fairtax,
Personal retail sales that year was about 4 trillion dollars.
THE BEST SLOGANS!!
1) Just a simple personal retail sales tax- 23%
2) Replaces all other fed taxes
3) All prices drop by 22%
4) Everyone gets a monthly check to help pay their retail sales tax
5) So simple a 7th grader can teach it.
-----------------------------------------
My paycheck -- said Boortz -- goes up average of 50%
Prices- - Boortz said -- go down 23%
The "most researched economic plan in human history " said Boortx
Wow --where do I sign up!!!
______________________________
Something odd in Neal's book.
I believed Neal -- at first. Why not
Then I read his books again -- one little detail caught my eye. Way back in the book, in a "throw away" sentence, was something odd-- very odd.
The federal government, Neal wrote, would be a "major taxpayer."
But that's not in the legislation -- absolutely nothing - zero - nada in HR 25 about the fed gov being a "major taxpayer" or a minor tax payer. How the hell will gov pay taxes!
______________________________
I knew because I read the legislation.
Curious, I contacted an official spokesman for Fairtax- - David Bennet. I asked Davis where "government becomes a major tax payer" is HR25.
David said -- oh it's there! Just look again.
I looked 8 times. I scanned a copy and search for any indication.

WHERE IS THEIR FUCKING RESEARCH NEAL BRAGGED ABOUT??!
You might be surprised.
Fucking Boortz had no research.
None. Writing fraudulent nonsense is not research.
Writing fraudulent goofy nonsense is the fucking opposite -- the opposite --of research.
Their fraudulent goofy absurd "research" was written by lying bastards to deliberately fool the public. It might seem like research to fools, of course.
But it sure as fuck not a simple retail sales tax --- to replace all other taxes. Those slogans -- used thousands of times by Boortz and other hustlers-- is the fraud.
You can pretend if you want, that the bastards doing the tricky ass bullshit they call research was NOT a fraud, not lying.
But they had to be in sync.
The fuckers who made up the lying slogans had to have worked with the fuckers who make up the "research"
1)tricky ass footnotes
2) tricky ass "assumptions"
3) tricky ass goofy absurd math equation
_____________________________________
Seems Neal can fool stupid people with slogans. Fairtax proved that.
But then, slogans, great sounding slogans, have always been the easiest way to fool the stupid.
Slogans, by definition, do not have the details. You must believe the lying bastard's slogans are true.
Turns out - every slogan put up and out by Boortz and these other lying bastahs (see definition of lying bastards below) was and is a lie-- a distortion.
A calculated fraud -- designed deliberately and only to fool others.
And if those lying bastards were laughing as their wrote their "math" and research -- Neal had to laugh too. Anyone in on the fraud -- not just fools fooled by it --had to be laughing.
Seems unless Neal was a dumb ass, unless someone in Fairtax bullshit fooled Neal too -- then Neal must be in on the fraud.
But is Neal stupid? No - Neal is damn near genius. It has to be one or the other here. Neal must be part of the lying fraud -- or he was fooled too.
I started to read that "research" the lyin
g bastards call it research. In that research crap are 6 trillion dollars of "other taxes" the fuckers put in Fairtax. 6 trillion the fuckers did not put in their legislation -- 6 trillion in goofy -- goofy as hell- - other taxes
Those other taxes are hilarious. They had to be laughing -- these lying bastards HAD to be laughing.
Not only did the lying bastards not tell anyone in a candid way -- not only did the lying bastards claim 22 million in research-- not only the lying bastards-- but these "other 6 trillion dollars" are impossible to collect!
Sort of like taxing moon beams and baby farts for 6 trillion. No, the lying bastards did not list moon beams and baby farts to tax (see their tax base)
But what they DID insert into their "tax base" his so goofy, so fraudulent, so hidden, that no wonder the bastards did not tell their suckers. No wonder the 6 trillion other taxes are in the legislation
The other 6 trillion the lying bastards published it hard to even find. They don't mention where it is -- I had to find it carefully
I called some of their "researchers" They claimed it was the most research economic plan in history. Fuck that -- they have no research. None. I mean none
They don't have an office, a printer, a phone. They don't have a fucking pencil pen or post it note. They don't have meetings. They don't have a web adress. They don't have an office --
Not about this "very very simple personal retail tax" of 22%, and where everyone gets a prebate.... and prices drop magically..... and pay checks go up magically..... All that shit, all their slogans are LIE. Fucking lies.
It's all lies.
I fell for Fairtax fraud too - then I read their "details" the bastards hid in their "footnotes" and "assumptions."
IS NEAL BOORTZ A STUPID FOOL
OR LYING BASTARD?
WE REPORT -YOU DECIDE
SPOILER ALERT
______________________________
The lying bastards told us this.....
FAIRTAX IS JUST A VERY VERY SIMPLE
PERSONAL RETAIL SALES TAX
TO REPLACE ALL OTHER FED TAXES
______________________________
Simple retail sales tax they say?
A very very simple retail sales tax.
Just a 22% tax on personal retail sales.x That's it, a very very simple tax
So simple 7th graders can teach it.
They actually showed a 7th grade "teaching" Fairtax as proof how simple it was
Hilarious- - because the whole goofy thing is a fraud -- a goofy ass fund raising fraud by bastards.
One of the lying hustlers in Fairtax fraud, actually ran for President -- an ego thing maybe.. Point is but he never mentioned Fairtax in his own run for POTUS. Hilarious
______________________________
SIMPLE?
REEALLY?
Watch what changes when the lying bastards-- in places their suckers could not even find --- is this "simple math."
It was supposed to be just a 22% (or 30%) retail sales tax.
Now read their simple lying hilarious math
______________________________
Why the goofy math -- because in that gobble goop crap, Fairtax has 6 trillion dollars in OTHER taxes
Other goofy taxes -- 6 trillion dollars in other goofy taxes. They wanted their math to work out on paper-- so this is what they did.... write that goofy equations and play hilarious games with definitions and "Assumptions"
______________________________
Sort of like taxing moonbeams and baby farts for 6 trillion
Obviously they were not about to use the term "Moon beam and baby fart tax" -- but the goofy equations they show are essentially the same thing. Absurd.
Absurd. Their other taxes are actually absurd. Not sorta-- not kind.
It took them a while to create the goofy math -- and they had to laugh -- as they concocted the fraud. The bastards had to have been laughing.
____________________________
ABSOLUTE SELF CONFIDENCE
CON MAN MEANS -- THE SHOW ABSOLUTE CONFIDENCE
Neal Boortz sold every slogan hundreds of times. He spent much of his 4 hours hate radio show -- on Fairtax
With absolute confidence.
INNOCULATING HIS FOOLS
Neal inserted just enough hate for those against Fairtax that he convinced fools anyone against Fairtax was stupid or for our income tax nightmare.
Indeed, like good fool, his fools would give one of those replies if you voiced anything against this goofy ass fraud.
____________________________
Everyone knows our income tax is written by lying bastards for the rich -- the irony is
Fairtax is too goofy to pass -- it's hilarious. They have no intention whatsoever to pass it
If anyone wants our present tax code, it's Neal Boortz and the lying bastards pretending they have this "magic answer" of Fairtax.
Surely Neal had to know at very least Fairtax had trillions of taxes -- much much larger than retail sales tax
But the fucker over and over claimed it was just a "very very simple personal retail sals tax-- so simple a 7th grader could teach it.
______________________________
OTHER taxes - 6 trillion!! None of these 6 trillion have anything to do with retail sales tax-- at all!!!!
So Neal and other other fools - or lying bastards--- sold us bullshit nonsense.
