Okay, I concede that it could be a mistake to run on the "get rid of the irs platform." But I submit that the reason for it is that simplifying taxes --- not necessarily lowering them, but simplifying them to at least the point of non-absurdity so we can actually talk reasonably about how much we are paying --- would render the irs only necessary in greatly reduced form, if at all. And then we can talk reasonably about how much we are/should be paying.
