Happy Tax Day!

What boggles my mind are people that want a flat tax. Many people get back a shitload anyway -- or avoid paying because they can squirt the puppies out. Flat means a perecntage disappears, no ifs, ands or buts. Bush and people in the 34% tax bracket would pay less. If we're talking about graduations in the "flat" tax, we're back where we started.

The problem is that our econonomy is a continuously running entitiy, non-stop, 24 hours a day. You wouldn't make major changes to a server while it was running would you? Tax reform would take planning and phasing that would span at least a decade, but that crosses presidential elections. What Gore would have in mind is not what Bush would have in mind, and definitely not what Nader would have in mind.
