Bill, you didn't address my position that when you hire someone for a job under the current system, you are supposed to be charged enough for that person to pay personal income tax and payroll tax (both sides) on what you pay them. Do you dispute this?
Are you OK with the knowledge that you can hire an unlicensed handyman cheaper than you can a licensed one because the unlicensed guy isn't paying any income tax? I'm not. That is precisely one of the reasons I want the FairTax to become law. Our current system punishes honesty and rewards people willing to do things they know are unlawful.
