Re: Talking Taxes:

strangly, I have always leaned more to a progressive system.... but i do think like you it needs reform.

I like both flat and fair tax too, and understand flat better....


I do think you have some serious blocks to moving this direction that include deductions... there is an arguemnt that charities will take a huge hit if you dont have that as a deduction.

also, you still have to deal with poor people. how do you make the really poor pay a tax like this?

I do think our current system leaves all of us with no clue how much we pay in taxes.
