You're claiming that companies will maintain benefit programs that have no purpose simply out of inertia? Without income taxes, no one needs a 401k -- people can invest on their own. Without income taxes, no one needs a flexible spending account -- why apply for reimbursements when the money is already pre-tax? Yes, if they have hired their people on the predicate of supplying just that in a total salary package. Otherwise they would be sued into the ground.
The final refuge of someone who can't win on the merits: the personal insult.
Here's a nickel, buy a sense of humor.
