How many families do you know that have the time, energy, & wherewithal to understand what is & isn't included in their tax credits to apply for them?

This is the same paperwork hurdle Alabama & Mississippi use to prevent people from getting social assistance & unemployment benefits.

Imagine a homeless person, keeping their receipts for a year to apply for sales tax credits. Or an 85 year old senior with dementia. Or a 16 year fast food worker.

The FairTax plan specifically addresses that by not requiring that sort of paperwork hurdle.

You guys keep bringing up all of these issues that I've heard the FairTax proponents themselves bring up and address decades ago.
