With an income tax paying base of 120 Million workers, that would mean that in 2007 we had $583 dollars of surplus per tax payer. At a 20% flat tax, that means we could have, instead of running a surplus under this plan, made the tax a 20% flat tax with the first $3,000 of income exempted and broke even.
