"I think Bearded Socialist has already said all there is to say on this matter"
Ha!

From a cracking debate on taxation, starting with a discussion of the Tories alledged VAT plans on moved onto flat taxation. Bearded Socialist supports a progressive taxation system, opposes a flat tax and supports the removal of almost all direct taxation to be rebalanced by increasing income tax instead in a fiscally neutral measure. mmmmm, higher direct tax *drools*
