Well Lib if you want to debate the issue, rather than posting BS, maybe you should back up. I'll ask you one question about Vance's article, Do you, or do you not agree with this statement in his article? "The Internal Revenue Code cannot simply be "fixed," which is amply demonstrated by more than 35 years of attempted tax code reform, each round resulting in yet more complexity and unrelenting, page-after-page, mind-numbing verbiage (now exceeding 54,000 pages containing more than 2.8 million words)."

the flat tax is not a flat tax. It is a highly progressive tax that shifts the tax burden to the "rich"
Don't pick one persons version and declare it all negative. If a tax has a progression up, or down, its not flat. Nothing more needs to be said about it, except that Forbes doesn't have a copyright on the term "Flat tax".
"generous and refundable exemptions for adults and children." But isn't that a feature, at least in principle, of the Fair Tax?
My original post has some serious negatives in it and they aren't opinions, so the author isn't as important as addressing his claims. This isn't about Forbes Flat Tax.
