Add on a Constitutional requirement that everything must be charged the same VAT. No BS where oranges and lemons have different tax rates because the orange producers were more "generous" to Congress.

Dump social engineering from the tax code.

But can there ever be a successful repeal of the 16th Amendment? Until there is, a national income tax can always be brought back by Congress, or worse yet an activist Supreme Court. I’m too scared of both a VAT and federal income tax. And would a flat VAT be better than a flat income tax?
