I agree with him.

It'd be an incredible world if the government didn't take 30% of everyones income. Imagine the living standards of the poor and middle class that had far less taxation.

Ultimately, major spending such as the mentioned (health care, pensions, ect) should be dealt with from a state or personal level. Many of the programs the government has that were listed (Medicaid/care, social security, ect) are utter failures, which cost much more than equivilent private programs.


lol, I don't know a single person of any class who actually pays 30% of their income when you include what they get back after filing taxes.

If you do you are an idiot who really should have someone else file for you.

However, I think the flat tax should be turned on with everyone paying something like 10% and businesses paying 15% or something. idk, I'd have to look into the bigger economic values, but I'd bet that would be sufficient and seemingly fair to most people.
