I'm not in favor of any of the flat tax proposals... but this is the tax system where receiving a 1099 for from-home software development means you literally have to get out a tape measure and measure the room where you did the work. The exemption allowance worksheet on the W-4 is similarly insane. There's a lot that could be done to make the tax system here less complicated without touching the tax rates themselves.

Yeah? You don't know if your room is a 10X20? You make it sound like this is some crazy task that requires some special ability.
