Flatten a cowpie and it's still a stinky cowpie.
And have you stopped to think of what a flat tax really is??? Obviously not ... it is something like what the present system started with in 1913.
In addition, it solves almost none of the problems caused by an income-based tax such as not taxing the illegal economy, not aiding US exporters who have to export some part of their busines income tax in the prices they charge overseas putting them at a disadvantage. And there are other income-tax based problems ars well.
Every flat tax proposed has the dubious "advantage" of retaining the payroll taxes and withholdings which are the largest taxes that some people pay. The flat tax is certainly not a remedy compared to the FairTax.
