Sales? Property? Capital? Usage?
There's a variety of state/local/ federal taxes. If you're thinking get rid of all and have a flat tax, then it would most likely be extremely high, and, yeah, would mostly benefit those who are already wealthy .
Nothing wrong with keeping all the taxes you mentioned as long as they're flat. I went out to eat tonight and before they added the taxes to my meal they didn't ask for a W2.
I was simply referring to income tax, sorry I didn't make that clear. But we agree that all those rich folks getting all these "tax breaks" would absolutely love a flat tax. Apply it to whatever you choose.
