What is not "fair" about that? Everyone should pay for what they use, that is the most fair - especially for choices like eating at restaurants which is a luxury, not a staple. If you can afford to eat out, you can afford to pay your fair share - my taxes should not subsidize that choice.
Do not take that comment 100%, tiered income tax should still exist so the better off in society subsidize the worse off. I'm talking about subsidizing people's choices, especially luxuries.
