To: Why So Serious

I don’t see how a flat tax will work to the country’s benefit. Even rich people can spend ONLY SO MUCH. How many steaks can you eat? There have been game shows where people had to spend $1 million in a day and it couldn’t be done. Our biggest investment is our home but that isn’t done every year. Homes can be bought on the barter system thus creating a loop hole. I just don’t see a flat “use” tax working.
