Obama Promises Less Dreadful Tax Day

Hey, Obama!

As long as I’m required to provide an account of, and to submit a portion of my income to you (against my will), your minions, and/or your respective successors each year on or by April 15, this date will still “approach with dread each year.”

Nice try, though.  Really.  The only fair tax is a flat tax.  A really flat tax, like zero.  Any other amount of taxation is theft.

We need to simplify a monstrous tax code that is far too complicated for most Americans to understand, but just complicated enough for the insiders who know how to game the system.

Translation: “someone else” is cheating you.  Those people will be made to pay more taxes.

Psssst: that “someone else” is you. You just didn’t know it.

    Well said. These fairtaxers are missing the point. It's not about making it easier to bend over. It's about not bending over anymore!
