Questions for discussion:

  • In general, do you think these taxes (costs) are fair to employers and employees?
  • Why would any exemptions for employment taxes be considered an unfair competitive subsidy by other businesses who must continue to pay?
  • Is there a better way to pay for entitlement programs delivered by governments and still help stimulate hiring?
