I don't know enough about this to say much, but I'm currently working on reading some of Milton Friedman's work and so far he seems to be a proponent of a modified flat tax plan. Right or wrong on the flat tax, I don't think an argument can made against Friedman's economics background.

He won a Nobel in Econ, but his position is extreme. I'm sure it is good to read his ideas, but I also think that it would be wise to read the ideas of some of the serious economists who disagree with him (and I'm sure some of them have also won Nobels in Econ). I agree that reading Friedman is a good idea though -- especially as opposed to reading Neal Boortz or Steve Forbes.
