My 2 cents, as an employer I would be more inclined to give my employees a raise not having to send matching SS & Medicare payments to the Treasury each month, not to mention a little more profit. Still have to rethink my purchases though.

That's fine, but the point being made by the article is that you can not decrease your prices by 20% like the fair taxers claim unless employers can cut wages.

Don't forget, as a business you don't pay taxes on purchases. Only end users pay taxes.
