more importantly, a national tax doesn't really have anything to do with markham's assertion that a wage increase leads to a price increase such that wage earners would be in a worse position than before.

The only way to really tax people working off the books is to tax what they spend. Since this is a growing part of our economy, some say 2 trillion, something needs done.

And a lot of these people receive benefits then earn unreported income, double-fucking taxpayers.
