Flat Tax

As it stands now, taxes are not paid fairly...in more ways than one. Why do you pay more taxes because you make more? Everyone should pay the same tax rate. Period. There should be no deductions, no rebates, no refunds, no nothing. You pay taxes and that is it. Period.

Think of how much the government would save by not having to process all those tax returns. In addition, think how much more money the government would take in due to rich people actually paying taxes, not to mention not having refunds. Such a simple solution to our tax problems.

Social Security Wage Base

Why is there a cap on the amount of Social Security taxes the government takes out? This is a blatant tax break for the wealthy.
