It also does not even broach the subject of compliance costs or payroll tax which would also be cascaded at the same level.

And even that is only the beginning.

Costly Returns! That book is a joke. The Arthur D. Little compliance study Payne based his conclusions on is from the early 80s and has be soundly discredited. The simplistic model ADL used to determine compliance time was flawed even when it was current.

I'd put Payne's "research" up there with Boortz's...well, maybe not that bad.
