They should break it down to reality. In the 1950s we had 50% unemployment, one spouse working per household. And life was great.
They also need to identify which and how many jobs are supported by tax dollars, and which and how many jobs are actual tax PAYER jobs that do all the net paying.
Tax absorber jobs should be called luxury or “Discretionary Tax Income”, OVERHEAD jobs. When a tax absorber pays taxes, its really a “kick back” of some tax money received. Or tax neutral. A push.
Those jobs should be tax exempt. Just pay them the estimated take home pay. They should not be credited as tax payers. All they are contributing is their time.
