Yes, but Jorgenson clarified this comment and made it crystal clear that Jorgenson was figuring that employee take home pay would remain constant.....meaning employees have to take a pay cut. I know you are one who will remain in denial. But that is not my problem.

You mean this question: "Why do you persist in trying to make the spurious argument that the only costs imposed by the income tax system are the taxes themselves when you KNOW that to be untrue?

Because there was nothing false about my arguement. You are just trying to change the subject. We have debated compliance costs before and I have always acknowleged some, but that has nothing to do with the point at hand.
