I was just trying to anticipate an objection to a national sales tax ( It will unfairly impact the poor).
I agree that no rebates, no bank cards would be simpler. I would accept it either way. What I would oppose would be the addition of a sales tax to the existing income tax. It all comes from us in the end, and piling taxes on top of taxes would make it impossible to pay.
