"With the most simple one being a single 10% flat tax on Goods and Non Essential Foods (chocolate, for example). This way, tax is voluntary - if you don't want to pay tax you don't buy the item you don't Need. Don't want to pay $100 tax, don't by the $1,100 LCD/plasma big screen TV. Simple."

I already pay that tax, Michael.

Here in the U.S. it's called "sales tax". While it may be higher or lower state to state, I'm paying 10% where I live. And it doesn't matter if I'm buying a gallon of milk, or a pound of candy. It's STILL the same.
