[edit] Tax void
This is original research by User:Colignatus. To my knowledge this is not a widely-known economic concept. Rhobite 22:44, 12 March 2006 (UTC)
- Delete: Patent nonsense. Okay, that covers most economics, but it starts out with horizontal area between the net minimum wage and gross minimum wage costs. How can an area be horizontal, and what relationship would it have to wage costs? Peter Grey 07:45, 13 March 2006 (UTC)
- Keep, if additional sources can be provided. I don't know enough about economics to dispute the premise or content of the article, which leaves only the question of credibility, which could be ameliorated by addition of an extra source or two, or a book reference. Just because neither Rhobite, Peter Grey nor I are familar with it does not make it original research or, still less, patent nonsense. Simon Dodd 16:24, 13 March 2006 (UTC)
- That's not a very good reason for keeping the article. You don't have to be an economist to recognize that (a) the article is unintelligible and (b) there are no hits for "tax void" on Proquest. There are no possible sources or references for this article, because it's original research. Rhobite 17:41, 13 March 2006 (UTC)
- Familiarity is not really at issue. It doesn't make any sense. It seems to be economic techno-babble trying to disguise a political attack on the concept of minimum wage. Peter Grey 05:32, 14 March 2006 (UTC)
- Delete, original research at best. Stifle 00:32, 14 March 2006 (UTC)
