This is the most sensible thing you have said in months.

A flat income tax should be enough and would force Congress into a realistic budget. It works for many churches. The government gets itself involved in too many programs that should have never been undertaken and should be left to the States and Localities. A flat tax is the fairest tax for everyone. It would encourage people to earn more and not have to run their lives based on the tax code. Businesses would have to stop making decisions based on the IRS Code rather than what is good business sense. More importantly, at least 3% of our annual GDP is dev**ed to complying with the tax code. This doesn't include the taxes themself. Wouldn't it be great to do away with tax accountants and preparers? Do away with deductions that are rift with loopholes favoring one group over another. Our current progressive tax system is one of the most inane systems ever devised.

Sici, you say that no one owns your time on earth. Well, no one owes you a living either. We already have too many free-takers and free-riders in our society. A person should be able to keep the rewards of their labor and we should do everything within our power to encourage people to earn their own rewards. But you don't get off scot-free because there are services provided to you that you must pay for...National Security, the Court system to ensure fair play. Nearly everything else should be left up to the States.

A flat 10% tax on sales is regressive and would hurt the lowest income people because all their income goes toward surviving from day-to-day. A tax on trade raises the cost of everything, and much like a tariff, invites retaliation.

Everyone should pay their fair share and I would submit to a maximum 15% flat-tax in the form of a Constitution Amendment. It would be more equal so that everyone has skin in the game. I personally think 12% should be more than adequate. Even 10% should be more than enough for the federal government to operate on without always looking for new ways to tax us and new ways to spend revenue. They can even retain the Standard Deduction so that the tax doesn't kick in until a reasonable level of income is achieved.

So you have resolved yourself to this self-defeating thinking. How do you think the world can rid itself of this evil? Are you and your minions going to go out and k**l everyone? You can holler about this from the highest mountain but what are you doing to change it. Nothing. Are you waiting on someone else to do something about it? You badmouthing and attack anyone who challenges you to do something productive and worthwhile. What a waste!

Go climb back into your rabbit hole and escape from the real world. That what you are best at doing.
