Give me your best ammunition against the "Fair Tax"
Advertisements [?]
better known as the National Sales Tax. There is some chode on radio right now saying, it's better because you choose how much tax you pay. That's true, if you want to drive a car you found in some tall grass, have your mom cut your hair and eat out of dumpsters, you won't need to pay any tax.

Some of their other points are, drug dealers don't pay any tax currently (as if you would pay sales tax on drugs :eyes:)

it only taxes income once (why the hell is that such a big selling point?)

It rewards saving instead of spending.

I want your counter points
