    flat tax or fair tax???

    I heard a commercial about a "fair tax" on the radio today. what are your thoughts on this as apposed to a flat tax, or current tax? I would prefer a flat tax if I have to pay taxes. no deductions, same rate whether you make 1000, 10,000, or 1million. that seems to be fair to me. the info on...

    http://www.foxnews.com/video2/images/50_vid_031406_ff_riders.jpg listen to what the signs they were carrying said. someones looking to have their "ask" handed to them.
