I am operating under the premise that America's tax laws are too inefficient, allow complicated loop holes for political and legal elites to evade taxes, and they are stressful on the economy.

I propose a federal tax reform that values efficiency, breadth, and small government. The tax codes will not be concerned with accommodation, but rather with efficiency. Stupid people who pop out babies are out of luck. All individual income will be taxed at the same rate, including wages and dividends. The state will not recognize marriage, and married couples will file separately.

The federal taxes will be 15% of all personal income over $20,000. Corporations and capital gains will thus not pay taxes. Though you could say this is regressive, the truth is that poor people pay no taxes and middle class people are not severely hurt. A middle class person earning $50,000 will have a taxable income of $30,000 and pay $4,500 in taxes - a 9% tax of their total income. Likewise, Warren Buffet (who admitted to paying less than is secretary in taxes) would pay $6 million on his $40 million or so of dividends.

This will decrease revenue, but a system like this would be efficient and relax stress on the poor and middle class. Moreover, people would have more money to invest and the economy would grow.
