Well, first of all, it's not "my plan". However, it is, in fact, an eminently fair tax because YOU control the amount of tax you pay based on what you spend. It will eliminate political influence on tax policy and prevent Congress from micro-managing the lives of average citizens through the Tax Code. That is why politicians, by and large, do not favor it.
Your analysis is based on a series of incorrect assumptions, none of which I have the time nor the desire to address here. I can only conclude that you actually prefer our current regressive graduated income tax (the Second Plank described by Karl Marx in his Communist Manifesto) which penalizes those who achieve to a more equitable system in which everyone pays something. I guess when it comes to real positive change, talk is cheap.

Scott Perry
