Re: Flat Tax Positives & Negatives
Flat tax positives - easy to calculate, everyone is taxed at the same rate and pays the same amount per dollar of income, i.e. earn 1 buck pay .20, earn 1,000,000 pay 200,000
Negatives - politics, special interests, ignorance and fear of change
For your information, I could (but won't due to privacy issues) name you a dozen families who live on less than the official poverty level, they do not have a large, air conditioned house, cell phones, internet access, cable television or a car from this decade, but neither do they receive welfare, fight with their children about $100 a month allowances being puny, worry about what the kids are doing when both parents are at work (they all live on one income) and nobody can claim they are dirty, lazy or untrustworthy
