Fixing the tax code

I will admit to a slight bias in favor of the flat tax, as proposed by Steve Forbes, though I haven’t yet read his new book. In the above-linked column, Forbes makes compelling arguments on why a flat tax would be be a better overhaul versus the national sales tax proposed by Neal Boortz and Congressman John Linder. I recently bought the latters’ book, and will start it soon. I’ll have to get a copy of Flat Tax Revolution for a thorough comparison, because at any rate, something has to be done to fix our tax code mess.
