Its kind of moot though. After the fair tax he still pays no tax. All we're really doing is shifting the tax burden from income that his customer pays to sales tax that his customer pays. And in doing so getting rid of a lot of complexity and unfairness.
Well, he was claiming that it would uniquely cost him money. It looks like that is not the case.
I'm not against the Fair Tax (though they claim we'd want to go a full year without revenue. That seems to me like a $3.2 Trillion non-starter) per se, I agree it's a better system than what we have in place. It's just not my particular preference.
