"But, is it fair that a single mom making $8000 a year has to pay $1,200 in taxes?"

Maybe she should have thought about that before having a kid and dropping out of school.



Anyway, I think flat tax is definately the way to go. People need incentive to work harder, paying more taxes is certainly not an incentive.

That being said, the rich usually find loopholes to avoid taxes. ie setting up corporations and writing things off as expenses etc. I think most of the burden ends up on the middle, upper-middle class.
