I understand his point about the revenue nuetral affect on each element of the tax base that is part of our economy. I do see a disconnect in this article that does not take into account the expansion of that base into foriegn produced goods and on the underground economy.
The base grows, therefore the burden is lowered on the elements carrying the load today. Are we willing to reject this idea because it might hurt foriegn companies and criminals?
Your point is well taken. We are, however, discussing Boort and Linder's claims of 100% paychecks and prices reductions.
