IRS is dismantled by the fairtax. Smuggling is illegal now and we all know that it doesnt curb anything. The thing is, prices really arent going to go up on anything and people will have more money in their pocket. That being the case I see few people taking the risk as the risk to reward ration would be extremely small. Buying something in say Canada is not going to cost much, if any, less than it will here.
