Calling me a poor truck driver, in effort to defeat my argument without addressing my points is a character attack, and you should know by now I don't let those go unchallenged.

Now, what is so special about your income tax idea that would close the nearly $700 billion tax gap? With more and more people earning under the radar, there is greater opportunities for evasion. If I'm not earning a regular wage or reporting self employment income, how are you planning to enforce my not paying any income tax? It doesn't matter if the rate is 10%, or even 1%, the enforcement problem is the same.

Sales taxes, on the other hand, have very little evasion and that evasion is much easier to catch. Your estimate of $1 trillion in evasion is baseless, as it would require even more people evading it than are today, and through multiple choke points. Wal-Mart isn't going to risk their business to let me evade the tax.
