"If the past sits in judgment on the present, the future will be lost." Interesting quote but it make no sense. Try this one: "If the present tries to sit in judgement of the past it will lose the future." - Winston Churchill

The idea of a flat tax is fine, but setting everyone's income taxes to one rate does not magically make the Internal Revenue Code disappear. I would wager that greater than 95% of what is in the Internal Revenue Code deals with the definition of what constitutes taxable income, not the tax rates that are applied to it.

Let the ox-goring begin!
