Sorry about that, but, "government taxing government" is represented as a flaw in the NRST. But gov't already taxes gov't, through income tax on government workers. It is dishonest, IMO, to neglect to mention this.

How exactly is that dishonest. If a government now pays $50K for a worker under the income tax, and under the sales tax it now costs the government $65K, what is dishonest about that point? Do you dispute that or do you not see that it costs more under the sales tax. $65 is more than $50K the last time I checked. What exactly is dishonest?

You state the the NRST is flawed because it involves government taxing government, as if that isn't the case with income tax. But, it is the case with an income tax also, because government collects income tax from all its agents. The NRST doesn't have any special negative quality that the income tax lacks, it merely shows up in a different form. Suggesting that there is some fundamental difference, when there isn't, is dishonest IMO.
