For anyone who has done their own taxes, you know how much time is spent on this complicated process.
Yesterday, GWB opened the door to exploring a national sales tax in an effort to simplify the tax system.
Bush Says National Sales Tax Worth Considering
How would you structure a tax system?
My idea:
Flat tax on income above a minimum level (i.e., poverty level) - money used for "infrastructure" including military spending.
National Sales Tax on non-necessities - money used for social spending.
We all share in use (infrastructure). The more we consume, the more we help others.
I am undecided on Estate tax (I've considered everything from 0% to 100%)
