Letter: Flat tax good for both Iraq, U.S.

I would like to know why I can't have a flat tax here in the United States.

Someone must have been listening when presidential hopeful Steve Forbes touted the flat tax to replace our incomprehensible Internal Revenue Service tax code -- Iraq, with help from the United States taxpayers, is instituting a 15 percent flax tax.

Good enough for Iraq, but not good enough for me.
