So the teabaggers want tax reform...
OK, fine. Here's what we do:

Set marginal tax rates for all teabaggers at zero for whatever income cutoffs they like.

Then, increase those marginal rates by one basis point (1% of 1%) for every spelling error on every sign at every teabagger rally as of Dec. 31, 2010.

We would be Sweden.

1. Seeing that the blue states seem to be carrying the red states I think
that every state ought to get back equal to what they send the federal government in taxes. That way CT, for ex., won't get the .79 cents for every dollar sent in but would get $1.00 and Mississippi wouldn't get $1.30 for every tax dollar sent in but would get $1.00. Hey, fair is fair and if they want to complain when they are getting a ride on the back of the blue states then F em.
