What matters is CUTTING EVERYBODY'S TAXES BY A LOT! The tax should be a flat tax no greater than 15% of earned income but preferably no greater than 10%. We don't need taxes as a government tool of social or economic engineering. We need government OUT of the business of social and economic engineering.

Who besides the Delusional Lying Leftist Hypocrites came up with the idea that there's something "moral" or "fair" about the corrupt and utterly unaccountable federal government money-grabbing the rich at a higher percentage? The most immoral, greedy, corrupt, utterly wasteful, and dangerously powerful entity in America is the mostly unconstitutional $4 trillion federal government. There is NOTHING "moral" or "fair" but much that is immoral and unfair about the corrupt and mostly illegal federal government money-grabbing the American people.

DISMANTLE the unconstitutional 80% of the federal government and a 10% flat tax across the board will do just fine. It's time for a CONSTITUTIONALLY LIMITED federal government to answer to the American People once again.

We still don’t know where the break points are for the so called tax “reform” in congress. So far, the indications are it will be paid for by the upper middle class.

I guess we have to pass the tax bill to see what’s in it?

Politics is a racket.

Trump has said “No tax cuts for the rich!” Of course he also said, “No messing with 401k’s!” I think he will be disappointed on both counts.

People don't want a flat tax. That means giving away all their deductions.

Yes people would like to only pay 10%, but good luck with that.

I want to get a free ride on a unicorn every time I fill out a tax form. What do you want?

9% earned income tax. No exemptions. No deductions. No credits. No modifications. 9% from the first dollar. The savings to the economy just from the end of the millions of hours of paperwork and the end of the IRS, at least as a huge agency. With that boost to the economy and the end or IRS and its attendant auditing slavery the nation could getby on less and would surely take in more revenue. That last is the downside of a low rational even tax.
