This should be done regardless of the tax system we use or implement.
I would like to see a Tax-Payer Bill Of Rights (TABOR) plan introduced where gov't spending is capped at a pre-determined rate. Unless tax revenue goes up, the spending cannot be increased. In other words, a spending increase by the government would, by law, equal the increase felt by the government in revenues--no increase in revenues, no increase in spending.
This is how most of us live, the gov't should do the same.
