text: would you be in favor of a flat tax or a national sales tax instead of our current income tax? our current system of taxation is not fair. a very small percentage of people pay over 50% of the nation's taxes.   a flat tax for everyone or a national sales tax would be more fair. what are your thoughts?  one of my pet peeves in life is unfair taxation. national sales tax. every one would pay. also lets move election day to april 16 or the first business day after the income taxes are filed then let's see if tax & spend democrats can get elected.
