Assets, post-tax savings, etc should have nothing to do with it.

Take the income that you EARNED during the year.
For every $1 that you earned, pay $0.15 in taxes.
Period, you're done... simple.
The people who aren't making much don't pay much, but they still pay. The folks making a lot pay a lot. Either way, they're both paying 15% of what they've EARNED.

The way it is now though...
You people over here take $0.15 of every dollar that you earn, let us hold it for you, and then we'll give you back $0.25 for every dollar at the end of April.

You folks over here, you pay your $0.25 per every dollar and let us hold it for you - at the end of April you won't get anything back, but you won't owe anything more, either.

You guys over there - you have nice houses and shiny cars. Fuck you. You take $0.34 out of every dollar and give it to us. And be happy about it.

This system is total bullshit.
I did my taxes today. Question after question after question. Digging up receipts. Going out to check the mileage on my van. Figuring up the "office space" in my home. How much my home has depreciated. Applying that to the office space. Giving the gov't full information on my children. Answering questions that were so personal I expected them to demand a full report of my bowel movements and number of sexual encounters with my husband for the past year.
Screw that.

Past the Name, address, and SS# section of the form, it should have three lines:
1. Enter your TOTAL income for the year: ________
2. Deduct 15% from the TOTAL income: ____-15%
3. This is the TOTAL tax you owe for 2003: _______

Badabing. Done. Write check, put form and check in envelope, stick a stamp on it and mail it off. 5 minutes.
