"And it would be fair. Everyone will pay the same tax and it will eliminate tax cheaters and corporate shenanigans"
- Steve Forbes
About this Quote
This quote by Steve Forbes recommends that a flat tax system would be a reasonable and fair method to tax people and corporations. Under a flat tax system, everybody would pay the very same rate of tax, no matter their income or wealth. This would eliminate the need for complicated tax codes and the capacity for tax evasion or avoidance. It would also lower the ability of corporations to use loopholes and other legal strategies to minimize their tax problem. By having a flat tax system, everyone would pay their reasonable share and the government would be able to collect the revenue it needs to fund civil services.
