That is all I am asking.

And all I am asking is that you defend your assertions. I will wait. Go!

Mercenary....you do that all the time.

You make a claim, wont defend it with facts or a real example and say prove me wrong.

Nope. You claim it would fairer and better. Provide an example that works.

No, you defend it. You are the one who made the claim. All I did was state what I thought would work. You stated that in your massive, but obviously weak experience, I mean since you really have no political connections, that, "In fact in the few highly industrialized countries where they were attempted, they failed miserably in meeting revenue projections.", and.... wait for it..... "I havent seen any flat or "fair" tax proposal where the numbers work or that is not highly regressive.".... so step up to the plate and back your assertions up with citations and facts. Thanks. I will wait for you.
