    Um, no. Ireland has an income tax system just like we do. The FairTax system is a federal sales tax.

    Actually no they don't. They have a form of income tax but it is not they same as ours. They also have a type of fair tax based on what you by that ranges from 0-21% depending on the good or service. Thats what I was refering to.
