Default Re: FairTax potential effects on gambling


If it were passed, It would be a huge advantage to everybody in the country, not just professional poker players.

If I were allowed to keep my entire paycheck, I'd probably work 80+ hours a week..

Goods would be taxed 23%, but the cost of making goods would fall as corporations would no longer be taxed, they can sell there goods at a lower price, and the net cost of goods would be very small.

But like the last poster said, anything that takes power away from the government (and this does), will probably never pass unless there was an overwhelming movement to get this through.

There are far too many idiots in this country who wouldn't understand the economics and implications behind the system.
