There. I said it.
George Will has gained and lost his mind probably 4 times by now, but I like this article very much. Dig this:
To make the economy -- on which all else hinges -- hum, Ryan proposes tax reform. Masochists would be permitted to continue paying income taxes under the current system. Others could use a radically simplified code, filing a form that fits on a postcard. It would have just two rates: 10 percent on incomes up to $100,000 for joint filers and $50,000 for single filers; 25 percent on higher incomes. There would be no deductions, credits or exclusions, other than the health-care tax credit (see below).
I must have lost my mind this weekend, because I'm paying more attention to political current events than I normally consider healthy. But when I'm Googling 'solvency' and 'entitlements' and I see this, my ears perk up. Paul Ryan's Roadmap for America has got my attention for the second time this month. Hmmm.
