Taxing America's patience

by Bob Jones

Cover Story | April 15: It's a rite of spring Americans have learned to endure. But a growing number are expressing frustration at the increasing complexity and unfairness of the tax code. They're sending that message to Washington, loud and clear. What's less clear is how to replace it. With fellow tax reformers disagreeing over the reforms, business as usual remains safe--for now.
