--- a flat tax still leaves our government open to special interest groups and lobbyists both of which help get us into this mess in the first place

---under a flat tax there is no change to the 16 amendment--we will still have an income tax! we will still spend billions/year in compliance and we will still have a 20,000 page tax code


---under a flat tax illegal immigrants, and those conducting illegal activity will still pay nothing in taxes

is a flat tax better than what we have now...yes
is a flat tax better than the fair tax....no


"A flat tax just won’t stay flat. Starting out nearly flat in 1913, the income tax grew out of control with top rates over 90% until the Kennedy administration." www.fairtax.org

Untilt he 16th Amendment is gone, all eliminating the income tax and passing NRST does is open the door to getting the worst of both worlds. I don't want to take that chance, thank you very much.
