Not Too Much Taxes, But Too Many
Above is an awesome rundown of the tax system for a small business owner in Minnesota (local, state, & federal).
I would much rather a set percentage is taken, and the divisions shown. Wouldn't you like to know that X% of your thousands spent in taxes goes towards a particular program you might not approve of? Wouldn't that make you more likely to do something about it? Or, what if something were being neglected?
A simpler, more open tax code would make people more involved in politics and would probably be much fairer to smaller businesses or startups, which can't handle the added red-tape as easily.
