First, this statement is not factual, but heavily disputed by both sides.

Second, how could it be regressive if the first $18k is non-taxable? Regressive means it gets bigger as the income goes down. Last I checked, zero is smaller than one.

Third, we have discussed this in a different thread. Not really on point here. If you want to discuss it further, I would have no problem rehashing the previous discussion.
