I've often heard conservatives say the Flat Tax is a fair tax while the Progressive Tax is not fair, but why are conservatives ok with the Flat Tax? Under the Flat Tax, you still pay more in taxes the more you make, so you are punished for making more just like in a Progressive Tax. The only truly fair tax is a tax where everyone pays the same amount in taxes. Although impractical to implement, this is the only tax system that can truly be called fair. So why are conservatives still ok with the Flat Tax when you pay more the more you make?
