Iow, yes there would be an additional 30% (not 23%) tax ON "any government" employee's wages, salaries and benefits....Gee, that shouldn't amount to much. < /sarcasm >

What indicates to you that it would be "additional"?

So today, both the income tax and the flat tax tax government output.

Did you read this part?

If government ... enterprises are not subject to tax, they will have a huge relative price advantage over private companies...

Or this?

You need to read the paper on the subject of "taxing government" that ancient_geezer posted earlier explaining that very clearly since the equivalent thing is done presently.

You're merely misrepresenting something you don't understand.
