Sorry for not answering each question, but my eyes are getting tired.

It's my position that the only funding that should be allowed are

1) Pediatric health care
2) Primary Education (k-12 & day care)
3) infrastructure (roads, environmental cleanup, power plants, etc)
4) National millitary
5) Law and Order
6) Government pay and maintenance including the beaucracy in all 3 branches

7)I may be forgetting one


Furthermore, I think we should have a flat tax with each category funded by a mandated % of total revenue.

4-6 I'm sold on. 1&3, unsure, havn't given enough thought. I tend to think large interstate roads with few entry/exit points could be private. On 2, I tend to think education should be privitized.

Do you like the flat tax proposals more than the FairTax(consumption tax implemented as a national sales tax on new items only.), and if so, why?
