Okay, but _just_ lowering the top-line number doesn't do anything about that. It just lowers the top-line number.

If he was proposing making the top-line number 15% and removing all deductions and credits, then you'd have a more compelling point.

Myself, I'm going to wait until a full tax plan comes out before passing judgement one way or another. One number devoid of context tells us nothing.

I mostly agree, but reducing the spread does decrease the handicap a bit.
