The Sales Tax - Conclusions

I think that a Federal sales tax, possibly combined with one or two of the supplemental taxes, would greatly simplify people's lives and reduce the time spent on tax compliance. It would reduce government's entanglements into people's privacy, and allow citizens to see the cost of government more transparently.

However, as I put in the title of the first sales tax post, this is an Ideal.

Besides "making" things simple, I also thing its important to "do" things simply, step by step.

Next, I will discuss what can be done now to move our tax system towards simplicity, without rocking the boat too much.
