They are EXAMPLE numbers.
I agree except skip the exemption stuff. Just a flat rate. If you make $100 you pay $10 if you make 10 mil you pay 1 mil.
10% is the most we should ever pay in total taxation. I say we quit trying to figure a way to fund the government we have with tax schemes. I don't care how you do it, government at all levels is just to damn big. Just say we are only going to pay 10% in taxes to the feds, the state, the county or anybody else. THEN adjust the SIZE of the government to fit.
This can't be done thru elections and policy at the national level. It will need to be done with amendments called and ratified by a constitutional convention of the states.
