I think the fact that the poor will pay is a feature, not a bug.

Disabused of the notion that there is a pile of “government money” in Washington, the appeal of sending a buck to Washington to buy you seventy cents worth of something you don’t really want becomes a tough sell.

That is why the politicians and the elites hate the Fair Tax. It becomes obvious that they spend far too much of our money on things we don’t really need.
