Subject: tax reform

Comment: I believe in a flat tax. One could still keep mortage int. and charity included.
This will cut down on abuse of system by wealthier tax payers and create a less complicated and more equitable tax.
Help social security - firefighters and some civil servants have reduced Social Security benefits due to their pensions, I suggest this be looked at for other public servants i.e. senators, etc. who may be collecting several pensions from gov. Also look at wealthier sr. who are collecting very large pensions and also max S.S. benefits. A lot of wealthier people understand the need for reform.
Thank for giving me a forum to express my point of view.
For a long time I have felt very strongly for a flat tax, I worked with many very educated men and they were of the same opinion. It reduces- paper work- resources- frustration-inequality.
