Clearly you have never been an employer. My hiring decisions are based in part on TOTAL compensation, which includes the cost of EMPLOYER FICA, unemployment insurance, workman’s comp payments, as well as the more obvious salary, insurance etc etc.
You can spin it all you want, but the 15.2% full cost of FICA most definitely goes into the price of a product.
I currently have 10.

I never said it wasn't. The issue is not that the cost goes into the product, the issue is if the fairtax takes it out of the product. From the employers perspective, only have is removed. The employer only sees the other half if the employee takes a pay cut, as I have been saying all along. It is really not that difficult for an intelligent person to understand.
