As with any other mode of taxation, I believe that a fixed, flat rate is most equitable.

So you are advocating an income tax? A direct tax?

Nobody is forcing foreigners to ship their goods here, and I see no reason to extend them suffrage rights as if they were citizens.

No one has advocated that. It was pointed out that taxing non-citizens is the easiest tax to get away with.

As with Alexander Hamiltons very first tax proposal to Congress,
I prefer a flat rate revenue tariff applied to all imported goods.
While this would prove to be insufficient to soley support the vast size of modern government,
it would enable reduction of more onerous modes of taxation that are imposed upon us.
