I welcome all thoughtful, analytical comments, including those that disagree with me.
FairTax (FT) propagandists usually attack their critics (me) in wolf packs. Among the many examples, see e.g., Newnan, GA Times-Herald, where you will find a host of FT regulars from AFFT Secy Jim Bennett to a variety of other FT ideologoues - their comments reveal a variety of deficiencies, including a lack of substance, superficial emotional rhetoric and an abundance of Saul Alinsky denigration/insult.
FT-controlled blogs lack integrity and intellectual honesty - they don't post comments that criticize the FT because they cannot tolerate their deceptions being exposed.
In contrast, I will post comments by FT'ers, just so that you can properly evaluate their deceptive tactics, superficial arguments, Saul Alinsky denigration/demonization, etc., all of which they employ because the FT is indefensible on the merits.
An initial set of Comment and Replies was made by David Shipp, a NC FT marketer. Because that "discussion" was difficult to follow, I have restated it in a separate paper that is a little easier to read and comprehend a FT'er mindset.
