We should institute a flat tax of 10%, and then add progressive surtaxes on top of that.

How a flat+sur tax would work, using the first two brackets.

a 10% flat tax for all incomes

A surtax of 10% on all taxes.
A surtax of 30.9652% on all taxes above $33,000

The end result of this would be identical to the current system of bracketed taxes, but with surtaxes, it is much easier to "remove a bracket"

I'd support changing the entire tax system so that...

$0-$60,000 = 0%
$60,000+++ = 33%

I don't mean to burst your campaign bubble, but until the Senate informs me that there is a need for one, I can not even set a date for the by-election.

I want to let it be known (in light of my earlier comment) that I'll be holding the election at the earliest reasonable date. We've already gone a month without fair democracy thanks to the personal threats against my person livelyhood (and my ability to make wage) by a particular Senator. I want to say clearly that once the laws are satisfied, I will be ordering this election take place as quickly as is reasonable.
