"Now --- would you support that?" Buddy, you are being silly. Put a plan out there (not from Russia or the Ukrain), and I will comment on it. Looks like you are going to the Stevey D school of word shenanigans. A flat tax to me means that everybody pays the same rate. If I say that to Stevey, he calls me a liar. I suspect you will too. If it is truly flat, and EVERYBODY who makes income pays THE SAME RATE, the American public would not go for it because it would hurt the poor and help the rich. I would agree with the American public. Sorry if that is offensive to you. Now if you want to put a SPECIFIC flat tax plan on the board for all to analyze I will comment on it. But you need to state any exemptions (oops, its not flat anymore), and you need to say WHAT THE RATE IS. Otherwise you will continue to look like a dolt, and I will continue to point it out.
