Straight through on red lights after stopping. You look, no cars for miles, you proceed. When this is possible, the red light turns to steady red, and you stop. It then starts flashing after about 10 seconds. If you can see in all directions and there are no cars that have the right-of-way over you, you proceed. When you can't see around the corner, the light stays red and does not flash. You sit there until it turns green. This simple measure will boost productivity, save a million barrels of oil a year, and recognize, after a hundred years of improper stop light use, that the proper use of stop lights is to determine right-of-way; not to make you idle your engine for two minutes, wasting gas and time.
Nice! But a national sales tax exempting food, pharmaceuticals and medical care, and the first x dollars of rent and utilities might catch a greater fraction of the cash transaction only folks, because they still have to buy stuff.
Abolish seizure (taxation) of private property (capital). I guess that would get rid of all taxes. Awww.

I am flexible, but I think that a national sales tax overtaxes the middle class and lets the top earners off too light. As you are aware, it doesn't matter if you take the Democrat or the Republican tax rates, either way the deductions and accounting gamesmanship makes it a moot point in terms of tax treatment. In my mind, the Democrats have no high ground on this issue.
