Tax everyone at the same percentage, and don't offer any loopholes for the big boys to wiggle through.

Of course it has to be on a percentage scale, after all a flat tax for a middle class citizen could be 10% of their salary, wheras a corporate executive that makes ten times more would only pay 1% of their salary, which is therefore basically the tax breaks that I mentioned above. However, there shouldn't be more of a tax percentage for the wealthy, because that would be total discrimination.
