Subject: Flat Tax Comment: I would like to cast my opinion for a flat tax. I would suggest the tax be based on personal income only. That way if you lose your income due to economic downturn or free trade, then your tax bill will drop to zero until you find gainful employment. There would be no exemptions and anything received from your employment, such as a car, expense account, stock options, benefits, anything, is considered income. All other taxes, business, sales, property included, would go away. I am sure this will not get much attention, since we (American voters) tend to elect the same wealthy people to office over and over again and they vote their pocket book first.
