If everyone paid just 15% ( you, me, Coca-Cola and Unocal ) then we wouldn't have to have all of those other taxes and we'd be able to pay off the national debt. Personally I think the cost of doing business should be just that, a large corporation should not be subsidized by the taxpayer for research and develop so they can make more money off the consumer. Again no loopholes, it has to be equal for everyone or it won't work. If you were to run the numbers you'd come out way ahead by only paying 15% plus your own operating expenses, what I'm suggesting is a major restructuring of the way things are done. I know it will never come to pass as the people in charge are not willing to pay that much in taxes.
> A flat tax of 15% is the way to go, but no write off's for expenses? You don't know what you just did to yourself there. Some limited, DOCUMENTED expenses.
> If you take a good look at how the sole proprietor is taxed, it is closer to rape. You get to pay into unemployment, but you can't collect it. Your social security tax is based on one number, while your benefit (if you ive long enough to collect it)is calculated on another. Generally, the way the tax structure is written (currently, until next week when they change it again), the sole proprietor carries the burden Federal tax-wise the same as a corporation, without the protection a corp. provides.

> > I'm with you, but along with a flat tax there has to be no loopholes, no write-offs, expenses are absorbed by the individual/company as part of doing business. We also need to stop individuals and companies from banking off-shore and not paying taxes because they are not american based even thogh the money was made here.
