Well, you asked how the national sales tax system would shift the burden onto the poor and middle classes, so I was simply pointing out that it would be a much bigger burden on this particular demographic of poor people compared to the current tax system. In response to your question, I don't know what their reasoning is, but not being able to afford it apparently isn't a good enough reason to stop... if it was then this country wouldn't have millions of families neck-deep in debt.
