...citizens whose incomes place them above the lowest marginal tax bracket are doubly penalized. First, they pay a greater amount than low-income Americans simply because they earn more money. This disparity would be true even under a flat tax. But we do not have a flat tax, and therein lies the second penalty.

Imagine if two people using different phone companies couldn't call each other. That's the current state of instant messaging...
