While the government pays its employees a gross amount and then withholds the income tax from their paychecks,...

Seems pretty straight forward to me.

Obviously not if you think the new tax wouldn't be additional.

How would it not be additional? If a government employee makes $50K today, it will cost the government $50K plus $15K under the fairtax. Well unless government employees take a pay cut. But why would they when cost of goods are going up?
