Cascading effects of income and payroll taxes (including complaince costs, higher interest rates, et. al.) add 20-25% to the price of goods and services already.

In other words employers would retain payroll taxes from the employee as a trade off for lower before tax prices only to be increased by 30% sales tax...

20% before tax reduction plus 30% sales tax =

Employee = Huge money loser in the end.

Employer and government = Huge money winner.

Get professional help. Seriously.

How many times do you have to have explained to you the difference between employer's share and employee's share of payroll taxes? How many times are you going to float the canard that employers could ad hoc violate employment agreements by keeping the former income taxes from the employees for themselves?

What is obvious is that you care not for the truth, but you'll use anything you can latch on to -- even after it has been proven false -- to attack the NRST.
