Flat tax is the only fair tax

Mr. President, how about going to a flat tax? We have a system in place now that's broke and has been broken for many years. No two people could interpret the laws now the same way. With the system changed, our return would be mailed on the size of a post card.

Here's another thought for anyone that's trying to save their home and has a 401K that's now a 201K - they would have the option to take that money and pay off or pay down the mortgage.

Let's call it a bailout for the consumers. The banks would be happy. And some people would have one less bill.
