Most economists, left and right leaning, agree that income taxes are a bad idea.
The debate comes in how to replace it. Most VAT/sales tax-style proposals include a reverse tax for low income individuals - basically a "prefund" check to make up for the sales tax.
That's news to me...
To be fair to you, would you text say Paul Krugman, liberal economist, and see if he agrees with you.
If he agrees with you, you can make your case, I'd think.
