I agree, but the big dogs are the ones in DC. How about a national referrendum amending the IRS code, which simply says something along this line... "All elected Washington Officials will pay a Flat Tax consisting of their entire earnings. There will be a one time $1.00 deduction for as long as they are in office."
Maybe then, we could get this country straightened out to the point where every American has to be accountable for their own actions; and growing this country instead of stifling creativity, risk by entrepreneurs (can never spell that word).
Interesting tid-bit of info.... How many FREEpers know that Lawyers do not charge their clients a state sales tax (in those 46 states that have sales taxes)? They don't, because they're the ones who effectively write the laws. Even though they provide a service, just as a plumber, or electrican does, they do not charge their customers sales taxes. The tradesmen that I hire charge me 7.25% sales tax for their services.
I could go on for hours but my wife is sitting here telling me to "just give it up... you're not going to change the world."
