If I were POTUS then I would go for something like Cain's 999 plan.
If I were emperor or some sort, I would focus less on exact tax structure but push for a political system where a persons vote is linked to the amount of taxes he/she paid. Something like you get 1 vote in all elections if you pay $5000 or less in federal taxes, $5K-$10K will get you 2 votes and so on with some sort of cap, perhaps 20 votes a person. Or I can use a Logarithmic function on the federal taxes you pay and derive your vote. Same basic affect. This way a low income majority can raise taxes on the rich only by having to face a rich majority of votes in the next election and vice versa. This is how corporations operate, one dollar one vote.
