What is unfair about a flat tax?
Currently, average joe who makes under $90,000 pays a certain percentage, and some rich guy making $150,000 pays
a smaller percentage of his income.
Currently we have a regressive SS tax system, the more you make the less you pay. I think that's far more unfair than a flat tax.
