I like most of the plan. I think the 23% that they are actually proposing is still a little bit too high. If you guys really want to do right by the people negotiate it down to about 5%. It will be more than enough to cover the nation's needs. And still eliminate income tax.

The 23% is supposed to make it revenue-neutral (takes in the same amount of money as the income taxes it's replacing). Economic issue. If you want it to 5%, that implies Congress will have to spend substantially less every year, which is a political question, not an economic one.
