Re: flat rate -- Forbes proposal was 17% I believe. And that excluded the first $30k or so. The tax code is ridiculous, but playing around with it is a waste of time, the real villan is predatory gov't that is spending too much, and has no effective citizen representation. Washington DC is like a foreign country to which we pay fealty of $2 trillion/year, in the hopes of getting some good out of it, but getting taxes and terrorism instead. Without cutting gov't and lobbyist power, and increasing citizen representation, tax changes are just moving deck chairs around the Titanic, IMO
