Jan,
the taxation model that you speak of is generally used throughout the US as well. It is not the ordinary worker that is the problem. The ordinary worker makes 25K-35K (do not remember the average) and thus pay somewhere on the order of 5K-8K in taxes (again not sure of the official number). It is the super-ordinary worker, the ones that make 250K-M+ salary who would much sooner pay an accountant a great deal of money to find places to shelter, hind and loop-hole their required taxes. It is also an issue with business owner who often times tend to defer these payments to a later date and employ the same strategy to not pay taxes to the government.
The fundamental problem with many tax systems is the terrible complexity within. because of these complexities, it is very hard for regular people to navigate the most favorable path (the one that will require that they pay the least) without professional assistance. The ideal solution would be something similar to the way P Obama was leaning during his candidature speeches, a way that people pay proportional taxes. However, he did not venture into the easiest and most efficient way of doing so. A Flat tax model, let it be 10% across the board, always taken at the source, no questions. There would not be a need for the income tax season, where accountants flourish. In fact there would hardly be a need for federal tax accountants, which would save the state a considerable amount of money. But that is another point all together.
