That’s more of a flat tax, not the fair tax which is like the European (and other places) VAT-or federal sales tax. I think a flat tax is doable, I just doubt it will happen in the near future.
“Flat tax” (rate) is fairly useless in terms of “simplifying” the tax code.
The complicated thing about income taxation is figuring out “what is taxable income”, not figuring out what the rate is.
