From what you said and I snipped, a flat tax is almost the same as what we
have now, except there are no loopholes or deductions And, if you have a
"poverty" cutoff, then in essence you have a graduated, progressive tax
structure - income more than $XX.XX requires a higher tax (unequal to
zero). Having a few more graduations wouldn't be bad, then, IMO.

As intimated, I agree about getting rid of loopholes.
