MMMM...... something to think about. I going back to the calculator to "investigate" wow I hope this is a ERROR in the calculator I just got this With the Fair Tax, you get: -8.48% MORE spendable income. -$2,033.39 MORE purchasing power. -$1,835.00 LESS federal taxes. with this self-empolyed: no married: yes members in household: 1 income: $30,000 income tax: $2,770 filing status: single receiving social security benefits: no mortgage: no state and local sales tax rate: 8.5% which maybe an invalid selection but the calculator should have caught it if it was. But I believe it is married but filing a separate return is ok if true I can no longer support the fair tax. It looks like the FAIRTAX hurts single and married filing separate?? I am a FAIRTAX supporter but this has come to my attention:
