A flat tax is the fairest form of taxation. Everyone paying a fixed percentage of their income irregardless of how much they consume.

The problem with a flat tax based on income is that it's no damn business of the government to know what a person earns. The sooner we get them out of our paychecks, the better. Imagine taking home ALL the income you earn.

“Imagine taking home ALL the income you earn.”

Nice to imagine it but then paying a 25% tax on anything I buy surely would dampen that. From what I’ve heard that’s the tax it’ll take on consumption to replace the income tax.
