You said, "George W. Bush and his economics team are quietly moving toward a flat-rate consumption tax system without anyone much noticing."
Are you saying that GW doesn't really want a flat rate progressive income tax but that his intent appears to be implementing a consumption tax? After all, Bush does like to spend and I find it hard to believe that he wouldn't like a hybrid tax structure.
