“Trump is talking about making it flatter and fairer. It ought to beat the whatsis out of today’s social engineering schemes.”
Flatter and fairer is Cruz’s flat tax.
A tax on the “rich” is not “flatter and fairer” and it’s not conservative.
You got to get it enacted first. Rotsa ruck.
If Trump looks mushy middle, that’s how he’s building his populist parade. He never went around pretending to be holier than any “thou.”
The people will support a moderately progressive tax, but they also want it to be honest.
