lmao there is no good argument for a flat tax and there never will be

well, if it's applied with massive deductions to income that result in no change to tax on the lower 50% of earners, it mostly amounts to a tax increase on the upper-middle class and is probably net-neutral on the wealthy but a large increase on the investor class and decrease on the professional classes (doctors, lawyers, small business owners)

you can always inject progressiveness to any tax rate via sufficient deductions

it's more a question of "does this amount to a net reduction in intake" because we definitely can't afford to do that anymore, all efforts in the past in that direction have been obvious 'starve the beast' manipulation that doesn't actually starve anything, just leads to more debt on the government level and wealth accumulation at the top
