I'm not an economist, so any guess is just that...a guess. Let's say a flat tax of 15-18%. And every swinging d_ck in this nation pays it -- EVERY one.

Honestly though, it's not about the rate for me so much as it is that not everyone pays it. We have a system that pays incentives for doing nothing. EPIC FAILURE. Make it consistent across the board, do away with all loopholes as far as I'm concerned, and I'm good.
