I looked over the salestax plan at the fairtax.org site... cant say I am impressed TBH. That would be a compliance nightmare. Pretty soon everyone would be buying black market shit, as opposed to paying 30% sales tax. How would you track real vs paid value? I mean, who hasnt sold a used car and reported the sale at a much lower cost than was paid?

I much favor the flat 15% income, 10% Capital Gains tax system. Keep that until debt is paid down, then lower the flat income rate to 10%.
