Flattening Time: We need a complete overhaul of the tax code.

We do need a complete overhaul of the tax code... The current code is crazy (that's putting it nicely.) I say we should start from scratch... Personally, I support the flat tax, but I'm open to other suggestions.

From Bruce Bartlett:

President Bush says he wants to reform the tax system and has appointed a tax-reform commission that will issue a report in September. It was originally supposed to have reported by July 31, but the White House asked the commission to delay its report so that it would not interfere with the Social Security-reform effort, which needs a few more months before it can be declared legally dead.
