Whats wrong with implementing the Fair Tax, instead? Way too much room for manipulation, just like the current code we have now.
Flat tax = everybody pays the same....no wiggle room.

Whats wrong with implementing the Fair Tax, instead? Excessively complex and far too easy for the MSM to misrepresent. A flat tax is easy to explain to voters and hard for Democrats to argue against. Its the right first step toward future consumption-based taxation.

Whats wrong with implementing the Fair Tax, instead? Both are good ideas, however, the flat tax would have the greatest chance of passing with the least opportunity to be corrupted. The Fair Tax, with all its benefits would require such a structural overhaul with so many levels and departments impacted, it has a much higher risk of failing or worse, becoming corrupted. Flat Tax is a good short term solution, Fair Tax would be more of a long term goal.
