The Federal IRS code is written so that the average American can't understand how to benefit from it and if at all. Most accountants can't figure it out before it is changed for the next year.
Many people have proposed a Flat Tax but the US government has done little to put one in place. This is not rocket Science and is feasible. I call for Congress & the Senate to put together a Flat tax Bill by the end of 2013 or face no pay until one is in place and past.
This Flat Tax will eliminate the need for such a large IRS organization and allow them to focus on cheating businesses. Employers will be responsible to collect taxes for all payees that are individuals & 1099 payees. They should be required to file 1099 for all vendors to insure business revenue is counted for and taxed fairly
