I like the flat tax better because it helps the economy far better than the "fair tax." The "fair tax" assumes that products and services can absorb any changes - but they cannot.

My clients will not take on an additional 20% tax hike onto the services I provide. Its rediculus. Forbes is right. The flat tax is proven and is simplistic.

In either case I hope that businesses still would get tax write offs for expenses. If they do not, we will be hosed.

Forbes is a long way from being right. The FairTax benefits the economy to a FAR, FAR greater degree than any flat tax.
