Flat Tax in the US?

"In a study for the National Bureau of Economic Research, Boston University economists Laurence J. Kotlikoff and David Rapson have found that our all-in marginal tax rate is 40%, give or take a bit. Yes, you read that right: 40%."
I don't mind paying taxes. The infrastructure that is needed in order for myself to benefit from the people in general is an important investment. I do mind stupidity and special interests dictating where my money is. I do actually think a flat tax might be a good idea. As long as we remove all of the write offs that are given to everyone and as long as we create a special bracket for those who are in poverty or near poverty. And lastly, we would have to create a special bracket for single mothers living in poverty or near poverty.
