Yes but they ( VAT, fat tax, sin tax) unfairly target the poor more so than the middle class or rich. Why would you be opposed to getting rid of all the secret back door nickel and dime taxes and only having one type of federal tax that is a flat percentage that you can actually budget for? A flat tax on the rich may actually end up making them pay more in taxes since all deductions would pretty much axed.
Also, I sincerely hope that you are opposed to the idea of fat taxes or value added taxes being implemented.
