actually, no. If everyone benefitted from the consumption exemption, there's no issue.

Not that I'm a huge fan of consumption taxes. I would set up a system that has diff tax schemes, including income, consumption and excise, but keep the rates in all of them low enough not to distort anyone's economic decisionmaking.
