Subject: The Importance of the Panel's Work

Comment: Most Esteemed Panel;
You are one of the most important projects for our Nation. I know you are lobbied by all types of special interests. Please work through the distractions and develop the very best tax system you can develop.
The current tax system is way too expensive and the rules are only manageable for the IRS and select members of the accounting and legal professions. There are way too many ideas in Congress that cost way too much. Someone has to disipline our legislature to spend within our "real means". Other countries can underbid our work force because our tax system is too expensive. Thus more and more work will be outsourced to countries that pay much less in taxes and can therefore afford to accept less in wages.

Please have the courage and conviction to do right by our Country and its tax paying citizens and develop the simpliest, fairest and most logical tax system for our Nation.

Best Wishes for you and your efforts.
Michael Todovich
