A Wageless Recovery
Drawing from data from the federal government’s Occupational Employment Statistics, the National Employment Law Project has released a study of hourly wages for the U.S. economy during the period of 2009–2012. Though this period has been called a “recovery,” hourly wages have, when adjusted for inflation, fallen across the economic spectrum.

quote em.....about eliminating MIN WAGE
Yes the flat tax shifts the burden to low income people tremendously. It's not debatable. A low income person who pays 0% effective income tax suddenly having to pay a higher effective rate or a VAT gets a large tax hike. Meanwhile the rich get their marginal rate and capital gains rate slashed.
