Replace the current tax code (60K pages) with a low flat rate. Taxes are necessary. However, I object to having to pay someone to figure out how much I owe because the code is so complex. Some individuals and businesses pay much less than their fair share by using (unfair) credits, exemptions, and deductions. A flat tax would be applicable to all. Income would be money earned, gifted, inherited, awarded, or won, etc., and would be taxed without reduction. The wealthy would pay more because of higher income, not because of a higher rate. When additional revenue is needed, raising the rate by .01% would raise millions. People would have more disposable income for discretionary spending, and could save more. Businesses could hire more. The tax rate would be fair & equitable for all.
