It looks Obvious: New Englad - Tax Reform Pioneer?

    Hi there, thanks for the link and trackback. It's interesting to note that Mass enacted their flat tax in response to New Hampshire not having income tax. The theory of competing governments providing for more liberty, at least economically, seems to be reasonable. I'm willing to bet we'll see the same thing happen in Europe as more and more Eastern European nations go to low, flat tax structures.

    Which competion will force the federal govrment to reform the tax code is still to be determine

    I don't know if that will happen. Unfortunately, when the Federal government really has no competition, due to size and difficulty of leaving the USA, it seems unlikely that competition can force a change.

    I'm usually a pessimist when discussing the hope to bring back classic liberal values back into the way society behave. however your post demonstrate that a move back into sanity is possible, we just need to find the proper incentive.
