The most interesting part of the “Manning Centre Barometer 2010”—an annual compendium of conservative values—was not the fact that 89 percent of Canadians feel that “nothing is more important than family” or that 60 percent strongly agree that abortion is morally wrong. Even the fact that 67 percent of Canadians strongly agree that marriage, by definition, is between a man and a woman, wasn’t terribly startling.

The human species has an instinctive dislike of taxes.

And why not?

What’s to like about handing over our hard-earned money to a bunch of politicians and bureaucrats?

However, there is a tax idea floating around out there that Canadians might actually tolerate.

It’s called the flat tax.

Essentially, the concept behind this idea is that instead of having different tax rates for different incomes everybody (individuals and businesses) would pay the same marginal rate.
