So drop the income tax and go towards a value added tax,
or
go to a flat tax with no deductions.
These concepts, are far to complicated for our congress
to comprehend :-).

How about this one? 15% taxes for earnings of $999,999 or less and 60% taxes for $1,000,000 and above. :) My socialist side is coming out.

The elimination of the estate tax is the opposite of that. It would ensure the creation of a permanent ruling oligarchy in this country.
