There is a method in that Fair Tax for taking the regression out of it
just like there is in my flat income proposal. You need to read a little
further than just the first sentence.


FWIW at least the flat tax could be adminstratively simpl, still to much
personal information turned over to the fed, face it they will still
"have" to know what you made so they can tell if youlied on your postcard.

But the cluster**** involved in the VAT, adminstering it with the
exceptions and "prebates" for low earners is just another giant government
program waiting to spin out of control. And you'd still have to declare
income to know if you qualified for the "prebates". never mind the sliding
scale bull****.

If i had to choose I would go with the flat tax as being more honest and
open. With no real deductions the tax preparer leechs would have to get
productive work, the IRS could be reduced considerably and then we vould
really debate how much the government "needs" and why. Now everyone
scrambles for and whines about deductions, perfect for the politicians as
an evasion for the real question.

We're to busy arguing about HOW we're being bled then why.

ambition but being glad he doesn't knowing he doesn't have THAT much
competence?
