Flat Tax

                The thought of a flat tax as the nation’s main tax is the better of the two options presented to us. There is no way around the fact that it is the only way you can “fairly” tax the people. By setting an equal tax for all would result in a perfect solution. Paying taxes is not an optional choice; although the rich may seem like it is with how little it affects their balance.

                People try to form the argument that just because they are rich, they don’t have to pay nearly any taxes. This may provide a decent argument; many of these richer people have worked hard for their cash and deserve the fact to pay very low taxes. They went through the American Dream and fought the grind to get where they are now. They deserve to pay that low amount of tax. But, if we are to set a tax price; we need to set it at what the perfect price would be. Technically, the rich would still pay more but that would be set at an equal price and they would still be paying a large amount. You never know, maybe if the tax gets set a price that is a little higher than normal; maybe there will be some lower class people getting jobs to help contribute to the lowering of the debt. I believe this isn’t a tax problem, I believe it’s a spending problem. By spending money on funding a useless war and funding programs that don’t work; we need to spend it on things like contributions to banks and small town businesses.

                Overall, we need a flat tax. It is what we need to continue to try to make a dent in our economic debt. This is the best option.
