Tax Reform

I've heard alot of talk about the 'flat tax'. Seems, on the surface anyway, to maybe not be such a bad idea. I've heard numbers from 13% to 21% thrown around. What would it take to actually make the flat tax a viable option?

It's already viable. Everything is in place. All we gotta do is dump the IRS as we know it.

Is there a list of politicians who support the idea?

It is not fair to someone who has a big family,but you probably know that.It also makes for a motive not to spend,and we need people who spend.Also makes for a black market.

Who ever said taxation was fair... And is the current tax code fair? Fair is not really a concept of life... and fair is not a Biblical principle either... :oops:
