Fair taxes is an oxymoron.

A flat tax is more fair than a progressive one. But it would be more fair with a head-tax aka. poll-tax. Everyone pays the same amount.

And what will you do with the half of the population whose total annual earnings don't meet their tax obligation? That's a lot of soylent green for the rest of us to eat.
