I'm ok with that as long as it's equitable and across the board.
That's
why
we should have a flat tax.

I disagree here, Doc. I prefer to see a national consumption tax of
about
10%, coupled with total repeal of any income tax. The national
consumption
tax would be implemented with similar exemptions and exclusions as are
found
in most sales tax structures today.

Just one problem: Cash sales. I'm talking about under-the-table sales done
by legitimate businesses,

I agree...that's a problem.


as well as transfers of goods outside of that
venue, as between criminal elements.

Those aren't taxed under today's system, either.
