Personally, I think they should take the current tax code out in the back lot, shoot it, and put it out of OUR misery.
Then write a tax code that is FAIR to the majority of the middleclass and if it nails the 'rich' so be it. I would also like to see (in my own perfect little world) people whose income is 'tip based' (e.g. waitstaff) declare their full income (and pay taxes on it)). I would also like to see the forms made simple enough that people wouldn't need to pay accountants (or buy TurboTax or other 1 year use programs) in order to do their taxes. While Math isn't easy for everyone, anyone with a HS degree who doesn't have senility issues should have a reasonable chance at filling out their tax forms correctly and getting the proper deductions included (or is it discluded?).
