if you'd like it to be that way I'm for it since I'd get more money in my pocket.

Right.
A family of 4 who lives within their means should pay less than a family of four who lives in luxury. People who choose not to have a family should not subsidize those who do. Everyone should pay thier fair share. Why should a single guy pay high taxes and a guy who has a family with 6 kids pay no taxes and they work the same job.
If we tax the under-ground economy, can you imagine how low the tax rates would be. I would bet most people know someone making money and not claiming it on their taxes, people who live really well and you wonder how. They travel, buy expensive cars, jewlery, get plastic surgery, eat at expensive restaurants, buy expensive cloths, have plasma TV's, etc, etc, and they don't seem to work 9 to 5.
