Yeah that's why politicians are jumping at supporting a flat tax . A flat tax simplifies everything and removes the loopholes

crowder, how do you explain the fact that taxes in this country are about the lowest they've ever been in history (yet the rates are "tyrranical"? what were they when Ike was president?), and the biggest economic expansions in this country's history occurred when rates were much higher than they are now? and contraction occurred when bush cut taxes.
no one likes to pay taxes, but the hyperbole is astonishing.

We are coming off the worst recession length wise in the history of our country...We live in a global online economy these days, small business needs to be competitive in that market, increased fee's and tax burden pushes them further away. The T-shirt and branding guy can't compete with china doing shirts for .99 cents, or stickers. Taxing american small business just makes our product that much less competitive. The CNC machine shops cant compete with higher cost from taxes, with China... Higher taxes are not a positive for any american small business... Small business start up capital is normally a private investment in this day and age, at least partially. We want people to be encouraged and motivated to take that risk
to invest in small business.. Increasing the cost to do so, doesn't encourage it, in fact it dissuades it.

Increased taxes doesnt lead to economic expansion. Maybe sometimes it might happen in spite of it due to booms in certain markets...But it is not a positive in the equation by any means.. Our national debt needs to be fixed, but we dont do that by increasing the size and cost of government.. I can even live with certain higher taxes in order to contribute to balancing the budget. But investment tax is not the way to do it. We need to encourage investment, we need to shrink the govt and its waste which happens by the nature of its bureaucracy and lack of accountability. We need to allow our business's and manufactures to have an opportunity to compete in a global market.. Big Government and higher taxes are not gonna help...
