> Progressive taxes harm the middle class whilst the rich figure out ways to avoid them. If you want the average person to do well, you should support a flat tax.

If the concern is "the rich figure out ways to avoid" taxes, there's no reason why you need a flat tax to address that. A progressive tax can abolish deductions, etc. just like some flat tax proposals do.
