My Computer Is Dead

Or on its way to being dead.

I need to get a new computer on the hop. My next issue will be whether I can retrieve everything off of the old hard drive with minimal nuisance. I have had a lot of emails and comments pile up, especially on my tax post from Sunday.

To broadly answer most of the email I got about this; I realize there are flaws in a flat tax. There are also flaws in every other proposed solution. To be 100% clear every national consumption tax plan I have heard would exempt food, gas utilities, health and any other vital necessity I am forgetting. This came back to me more than once.

Doesn't matter. If your doctor pays an extra 30% tax on his new Mercedes then YOUR medical care costs ARE going up. Every lunch is paid for.

Get a Mac! If you replace your laptop, get a PowerBook. You'll love it.
