I'm not a Trump fan, and despite likely tax hits, his proposal of simplifying the tax code (as many have done before him), getting rid of the IRS (yes jobs lost, but really, I got a certified letter owing $0.51 and they were "too busy with this category to answer. click") would be a positive thing.

One short summary of his proposal -- http://www.thepoliticalinsider.com/donald-trump-unveils-his-...

I think a pure flat tax would actually be bad for the country implemented immediately, but maybe a gradual rescinding of tax breaks (mortgage, etc -- i use said benefit) might be worth considering.

Wall Street bankers running off pure capital gains is a big problem.
