McMoron,

I think the point was to have you quit bitching about "others not paying enough" when you "pay none".

A flat tax is a fair tax. Everyone pays same share but no deductions, no breaks(that would be the most important part). You make 10K at 10% you pay 1K. Your share. Someone makes 100K they pay 10K. Same %, different amount of money. No need for the IRS either. Saves money.

The "tax them not me crap" and pitting one class against another is then gone as well. But what would our pols have to bitch about. Who could they say is holding you back? Keeping you down. What would drive you to the voting booth? Will never happen for that reason. Besides it is to simple and makes to much sense for our govern to use it.
