I think we should have:

1. 9% business flat tax
2. 9% personal income tax
3. 9% national sales tax

If someone had thought of this before, this would get us back on track.

I'd do it a little higher and a little differently. 15% flat corporate income tax, flat 15% tax on all sales, no exemptions or reductions, no staggered brackets. States would have the opportunity to add up to 5% to each category. Of course, the center of my thinking involves a Constitutional amendment to eliminate personal income tax, which was little more than a government cash grab in the first place.
