Is there such a thing as a fair tax? Seems no matter what kind of system is used, it turns out to be unfair to some people. My thinking is that the closest thing to a fair tax or taxes are user fee type taxes and sales taxes. Everything else allows some folks to pay little or nothing, and others to pay way to much. I don't consider a flat tax to be fair. Why should a person making a hundred thousand bucks a year have to pay way more for the same benifits and services as a person making twenty thousand bucks a year? Same for any kind of progressive type tax. Shouldn't a fair tax be spread out evenly?
