I want a flat tax with no deductions. Same for corporate taxes.

You pay tax on your gross earnings and corporations pay tax on their gross revenues.

No deductions. No cheats.

And no taxation that discriminates against income that didn’t come from a paycheck.

All income should get taxed at the same rate.

Also, no charitable deductions including churches. You should pay your tithe honestly and not expect a kickback from the government.

No cheats, no deals, just pay the amount due and be done with it.

EXACTLY. Take away the ability to trade favors for money, it is bribery.

Sametime with public unions, they negotiate with the people they give campaign donations to. Do that anywhere else and it is bribery.

Public employees are protected by civil service, no union representation is needed. If they want to have unions, then they cannot donate money to candidates or negotiate contracts.

I know reading this will send members of the NEA and other public unions into a frenzy...good.

Please go to https://www.bigsolution.org and study the FAIRtax.

After you do, you probably will become a FAIRtax supporter!

Paid out Interest is part of someone else’s Gross Income and needs to be deducted from your Gross Income, because it’s not yours, it’s someone else’s.
