Rubio: Least regressive plan among the GOP, only cuts the top rate to 35%. But eliminates cap gains, inheritance tax. Fantastical.

What makes you so high on Hillary's budget plan? I find her plan repulsive.
In terms of the Forbes Single Rate Tax, it would be a good plan if it were adopted but there is a lot of animosity toward a fair minded income tax structure. For some reason, progressives find it fashionable to say the top 25% which already pay 55% of the total tax burden must pay more. Really, how is that fair?
Rubio's is fantastical?
Additionally, Reagan showed you must start somewhere because you will always be negotiated down from where you start.
