Passing the fairtax and getting rid of the income tax would stimulate the economy by repatriating trillions of dollars currently overseas. This would also lower prices by getting rid of embedded taxes hidden in the price of every product.

It would recoup a lot of money simply by having people pay taxes at the point of sale.
