I would prefer a national sales tax, because even a flat tax taxes only those that have a repoted income where a national sales tax would aslo include those working under the table, drug dealers bookies etc because it would tax them when they spend it not when they earn it, my concern would be that they keep the income tax and just add the national sales tax not replace the income tax with the sales tax

I agree with you, and I think such a proposal should be in the form of an amendment to the constitution that would eliminate the income tax and also require a balanced budget except in the case of a national emergency.
