Paul is my man. That being said, when it comes down to it, I might vot for Giuliani now that he has come out for the flat tax. People don't realize the inefficiencies caused by the tax code. The economy would take off if the flat tax was passed.

Oh, don't be too taken in by Giuliani's sudden conversion to the Flat Tax (which he utterly disparaged in 1996): "Mr. Giuliani said that if elected president, he would like to change over to a flat tax, but acknowledged that may be impractical..." Giuliani may be the first candidate in history to accept an endorsement while castrating his supporter's key issue in the same speech.

Meanwhile, Ron Paul's Political Director should be talking to David Polyansky (Chief Operating Officer of FairTax.org) and Americans for Fair Taxation today regarding Ron Paul's support of the FairTax and the complete abolition of the Income Tax.

Let's just say I did some "networking". ONWARDS and UPWARDS!

>>but acknowledged that may be impractical...

I missed that. Do you know if it was "impractical" in that he would push as hard as he could but dems might not pass it, or "impractical" in that it might not allow for enough government spending?

You are right IMHO that with Guliani as president we will not see major tax reform.

OTOH, no matter who is President, it is the Congress that sets the tax reform agenda, and it wont happen without a major increase in conservative and Republican representation anyway.

Good point. Ron Paul supports a flat tax too, and I think he supports the best rate possible. :)
