I do, however, agree with your underlying hypothesis, that people will more directly react to their actions if penalties are more directly linked to them. <br /><br />The missing piece in your analysis, of course, is that the government wants to act rationally. The problem is that because of special interest motivations to preserve the "American Way" of life, the government does not, in fact, act rationally.Andrewhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08825716398853639004noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4723658433860404694.post-592042552310785532009-05-08T03:25:00.000-05:002009-05-08T03:25:00.000-05:00Flat tax is the way to go....it is fair, 10% of what you make....if it is "good enough" for God, it should be plenty good for the gov't.Kelleyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09267622199346177595noreply@blogger.com
