Hardly, Finial. The FT (Forbes or otherwise) is going nowhere.
It is still an income-based tax with all of the attendant horror stories and problems.
It does nothing to aid our exporters as does the FairTax.
It does nothing to elicit taxes from the illegal economy (illegal aliens, etc.) as does the FairTax.
It is only "flat" for starters - but so was the present income tax when it started.
