A flat tax would never work. A flat tax would only help the wealthy. The average person would have to pay a higher tax rate. The wealthiest people in america pay a bigger dollar amount of taxes as it is and making a flat tax would decrease the amount of taxes paid in by the wealthy and increase the rate of the lower classes.
