And he should. The fact is after tax prices are going up if the fair tax ever becomes law. Anyone with any kind of savings will see the buying power of that money significantly reduced. Boortz has now admitted that prices can't come down like he says in the book (unless employees miraculously agree to a pay cut). Incomes will go up to offset these price increases, but those relying on savings will be hurt. No amount of tap dancing will change that. If I was Boortz, I guess I would want to change the subject too.
A wage cut, not a pay cut. Employees can agree or disagree(stay or quit) if they get wage cut and receive the same (take-home) pay.
