Tax laws are a judicially approved method implementing
economic
policy. think retirement plans, think international trade,
etc. It's
easy to criticize with a bumper sticker political slogan
It's
much
harder to implement in real life. There are many loopholes
that
perhaps shouldn't be there, but that doesn't negate the
whole
system.

Tax laws are also used for social engineering. It's time for
a
flat
tax, no deductions. Everyone pays the same rate, including
the
bottom
50% of earners who pay virtually no income tax at all and
some
of them
still get tax credits. As Joe Biden said, paying your taxes
"is the
patriotic thing to do". Everyone should have some skin in
the
game.

The notion of a flat tax in inherently unfair to lower income
people.

a flat tax is as fair as it gets. the more you make the more
you
pay.

it's also simple. a tax return can be done in a minute or two,
versus
needing to hire an accountant or tax preparer, which poor
people
can't
afford either.

Wallow in your ignorance.

will you say the same to the other peter, or everyone else who
advocates tax reform? doubt it.

Twisting again. One more you have demonstrated ignorance.

i'll take that as a "no, i won't bash the other peter for saying
the
very same thing".


I have a lot of respect for PAS. His conclusions are carefully
thought
out, and are not intended to be confrontational. He also answers
questions, you just ignore uncomfortable questions.


And I have a lot of respect for you. We come from "other sides of
the
aisle" yet manage to treat each other respectfully and are on
friendly
terms. What a concept!


Now if only our Congress, on AL sides, would stop being A-holes


It makes you wonder if it's just not part of the nature of a politician
to do so.

It means he didn't read it, but whatever it says is wrong.
