The only fair tax is an equal tax, where everyone pays the same amount.

Now if you believe in from each according to his means ... then all sorts of games and percentages come into play to convince the average Joe he is getting a break.

With one set amount the politicians can not divide and conquor the people, like they do when they get non-property owners to vote to raise property taxes, or when they get nonsmokers to raise taxes on cigarettes.

One man, one vote, one tax bill.

I don’t think any non-property owning voters ever see a property tax that they will not vote for.
