I am with (many) of the various deficit reduction panels that have been convened over the years when they point out that our tax system has grown hide-bound and massively corrupted over the years... and that the best way to both lower rates, and restore vitality to America, (getting tax compliance costs off of the backs of the people and businesses), and return economic decision-making to rational economic considerations instead of 'tax loophole shopping' is to SLASH as many special interest tax loopholes and 'special preference items' as we possibly can... then lower the rates by the same amount. Easiest way to do that (IMO) might be to start with a clean sheet of paper....
