Original Note:
A group of Replublicans is pushing the "Fair Tax Act." If passed, this would raise sales taxes to 23% across the board, however, the way the taxes are calculated would raise costs for most Americans 30%. This would effectively raise the cost of living for 4/5 of Americans. https://www.cbsnews.com/news/fair-tax-act-republican-proposal-how-it-works/ https://www.congress.gov/bill/117th-congress/house-bill/25/text
