Individual income taxe is completely useless. It's difficult and time consuming and really doesn't seem to be helping pay for all the crazy things politicians come up with. What we really need is a National Sales Tax. Say, around 15%-20%, maybe even 25%. I be willing to pay 25% sales tax on everything and I think it would bolster our national coffers quickly and efficiently. As the tax system is now only certain people are paying the lion's share in. With a National Sales Tax the bigest spenders would pay the most taxes. There would be no possibility of 'tax shelters' and hiding your money so you pay less taxes. Also EVERYBODY would pay taxes if there was a National Sales Tax, citizens, non-citizens, terrorists, tourists, EVERYBODY. And the people who bought the most, would pay the most. It's a good idea.
