Flat Tax. I think the flat tax is a huge scam for the rich and the investment class. Under Bush the rich have benefited by the lower capital gains and income tax cuts. That extra income from tax cuts has completely insulated them from feeling the effects of inflation, higher taxes and energy costs. A HUGE FLEECING OF THE MIDDLE CLASS ! The middle class no longer has any political power and it shows. The new America will consist of 3 classes. 1. The permanent poor underclass - on the public dole. 2. Lower middle class - working, but drowning in a sea of debt up to their eyeballs and continually being outsourced, or having their jobs sent overseas. 3. The rich who will benefit by the policies of the politicians they buy and sell. Ron
