Kotlikoff Running For President

Social security guru Larry Kotlikoff is running for president as a write-in candidate. He has published a free e-book with his platform. His ideas seem very friendly to investors-
1) Eliminate personal income tax and capital gains tax.
2) Instead use "business cash flow" tax (similar to VAT) and progressive personal consumption tax. (Only about 20% of the public would have to pay this).
3) Many other interesting ideas about health care, social security, education etc. I haven't had time to read it all yet.

Since I'm approaching the age when I will have to take minimum required withdrawals from IRAs, I particularly like #1 above :>)
