It is simpler, it doesn’t require a new national tax and the “opportunity” zones that will require a new bureaucracy and another smack at federalism.
It’s a real shame Perry doesn’t have the mental equipment necessary to defend a flat tax in a debate.
That’s because they think it is a “flat tax” ... it is not. That is optional. If you were running GE today, would you choose a 20% flat tax or the present system under which you pay ZERO in taxes. Read it folks, it’s not a flat tax ... it is what we have now with that as an option.
