Was for a flat tax, applied equally to all income levels, and was for it thirty years ago. Know that is hard to believe though it is true. Those with whom I spoke were afraid. Afraid of losing deductions. Then the next excuse was what keeps the rate constant? Would not Congress have the power to raise the rate. The truth is yes Congress would have that right. Sorry FRiend if you think I was attacking you personally. I wish it were simple but it is not.

I don’t know if a flat tax is the answer to raising revenue, but I rather have Boehner talk of raising revenues than just raising taxes, to cover the shortfalls.

I think we have to face it... because Obama got re-selected we are going to have to swallow a massive increase - ObamaCare and all of the entitlements aren’t going to disappear. And regulations are going to make job and company growth slow.

We are evolving into Canada - it sucks, but the sheeple have spoken.

I take no offense to your comments - thank you.
