Robert Borosage, Institute for America's Future vs. Anthony Holm, Republican Strategist/Attorney. Rick Perry's flat tax plan is just flat out wrong for the country's 99 percent. But one of my guests this hour begs to differ...we'll debate Perry's new flat tax that could cause the nation to flat-line.

1. Three questions
Actual taxes paid, are payroll deductions taxes, and why not
70% from top tax bracket worked great in the past.

2. Because it makes sense
The financial elite wouldn't be able to fleece the public or rely on crony capitalism to pass their agenda.
