Just commenting on that 15%. What blows my mind is people think tax receipts go up only in tax increases. It does in the short run but not the long run.

If government wants more tax revenue, then they should lower taxes. This allows business to hire more people thus more tax payers. Look at the Kennedy and Reagan tax cuts. In both cases the tax revenue doubled over the next 10 years...


Going back to what you wrote.. Even the Flat tax this is being advocated will still have some exemptions as the writer has indicated above. Nevertheless, I will take a Fair or Flat tax any day over the current tax code...

Then take it up with that writer. As I outlined it, there are no exceptions, exemptions or anything of the kind. Flat tax means flat tax in my book.
