Okay, here's the new one page Flat Tax system I propose. You tell me if you are for it or against it...
Everyone is taxed 35% off the top of their paycheck, across the board.
$35 on $100 and $350,000,000 on three billion.
This money is used to pay for infrastructure, education, technological research, Social Security, and FREE HEALTHCARE FOR ALL. This will eliminate all businesses who use the bullshit excuse of not hiring due to healthcare costs.
Then all states are allowed a 10% state tax on all goods sold (except food and clothing) which would be used to update our energy grid, and give subsidies for all technological developments that ween us off of fossil fuels.
Property taxes should be taxed at .01% of your propertie's current value, with no exceptions.
A house worth $250,000 would be taxed at $2,500 p/year, and so on.
This money would go towards community services, emergencies, and improvements.
NO INCOME is tax exempt or tax reduced, including capital gains.
NO INCOME can be off-shored, or hidden.
Corporations that do ANY business in America are taxed 20% of annual net profits - not gross, net.
How about that, for a start - all on one page.
