I think I've decided I'm OK with a flat tax on everybody. I don't care if you made 4 dollars this year, pay your taxes.
I'm not sure I understand why a flat tax is as popular as it seems it is. If everyone paid the same rate, I think almost everyone's taxes would go up, except the rich.With ZERO deductions. The problem with our tax code is there are too many loopholes and things to write off. I would be okay with a consumption tax as well.
But maybe I'm missing something.
