The FairTax is a fantasy, even to Republicans

I have been on a tirade about the supposed FairTax being pushed by Republicans. Thenotion of a tax being supported by Republicans should already send warning signals to many. When have they supported a tax that benefits the whole? Um, never.

But, in my search to find more truth than fiction on the scam, I actually came across two individuals who consider themselves Republican – very Republican – and do not support the FairTax idea.

When a Republican says "It will be better for everyone" you are not looking to see if they are wrong but how wrong they are and how disingenuous the particular Republican is.
