i've always been against a flat tax as it hits the poor especially hard...however, i consider it fair and hte 36,000 cutoff point seems fair. I can easily see how there would be room for abuse by hiding income as is done now, but It seems like a 'fairer' system....just not sure if it would actually bring in enough money for the gov't
as for a national sales tax...bad idea...i cannot reasonably see any massive drops in prices to offset the huge increase in tax prices for goods or services...I dont' see prices going much higher, but there would be a short-term leap followed by long, sustained increases..
as for the current system....very bloated and not very fair to poor or middle..
just my quick thoughts..not much to them other than gut feelings
