I do not mean to muddy the waters but think about this.

If we have a flat tax (what ever the Rate) with no exclusions.

A Company , Business and or Corporation when they purchase anything whould pay the flat tax and then just add it on to the next guy.

The next Guy (not the end Guy) purchase the Item from a Business that just added the flat tax and tey pay the flat tax and add something to what they purchased from the Business before them and they add the flat tax they paid onto the product the next Guy does the same thing pays the flat tax and passes that onto the next guy.

By the time some products get the the last guy that has to pay the end all flat tax that tax has been inflated how much 30% , 40% , maybe 100+% who knows what it would be. It would depend on how many hands a product or even a Service had went threw.

I do not like the IRS but I do not see them being dismantled 100%.

A flat tax could and should shrink the IRS to a manageable size unlike what we have today with all of the run away agency's.
