The best way to reduce overhead and eliminate privacy issues is to fund infrastructure in regular taxes. People with more money will pay more of the infrastructure, which is fair because they are likely to be the highest consumers of goods and services.

I'm all about elimination of layers of administration and enforcement, and reducing the avenues of cheating. That's why I'm for a federal sales tax and the elimination of all deductions. Send the IRS and most CPAs to the unemployment line.
