Flat Tax

I've been reading all the flat tax articles on the internet I can find. I agree with you that progressive income taxation is not objectively fair. I want to continue to be unfair to the rich people until we are out of motherfucking debt. After that, I would likely support a flat tax in conjunction with a consumption tax on luxury items. On a per capita basis, each of our sons technically owe about $30,000+ already - that pisses me off tremendously. If you spent $1 million per day, it would take you 2,800 years to reach $1 trillion. We are in the hole that much times 10 - it's absolutely insane. When I see Dick Cheney quoted as saying "deficits don't matter", I say "Would you please call VISA for me, jackass?"
