No one would be able to claim that billionaires pay lower tax rates than their secretaries or that the system is rigged to favor the rich over the middle class.

Oh yes they will. The justification given for progressive taxation has always been that a given percentage of their income hurts the poor more than it hurts the wealthy, so the wealthy should pay more. The left will say a flat tax is an assault on the poor.

They can say whatever they want, but every citizen needs to be vested in the country as a taxpayer.

There never will be a tax plan proposed by a conservative the liberals will not claim is an assault on the poor and a dozen other reasons they will come up with none of which would be true, it is built into the liberal agenda; the only good tax plan is a progressive liberal tax plan, that's just the way it has always been and always will be.
