Eh, a lot of common people support the Flat tax, if anything because they assume a lot of rich people are cheating their way to paying less then they do anyway. (Which actually isn't true.)
Really, what I think would be a REAL winner... would be a Progressive "stairs'.
That is, a progressive tax with no Deductions outside the 3-4 most popular. Children, Charity, and two others.
Would still fit on a postage card minus captial gains.
Just tie it to a tax rate drop so effective revenue stays the same, and most people would probably vote for it to avoid subdizing the 50 thousand things other people are doing.
