Agreed. I am in the Neal Boortz crowd myself. Flat tax is fair, everyone pays, regardless of race, color, creed, wealth, etc. Because it is so simple without a beuracracy, the gov't would never be for it, as there are no more smoke screens to hide taxes, etc. A simple flat tax also would allow one to calculate what the tax is before buying or selling something, too.
Heck, even the illegal aliens will have to pay a tax....
