First off, I think TIME PES EQUALLY (AT THE SAME RATE) IN ALL INERTIAL SYSTEMS.
Here's why I think so.
Imagine we have 2 reference systems A and B that are moving at a constant speed in relation to each other. How can you say in which system time pes slower or faster? They're both equal. If you choose a third reference system in relation to which you'd consider the motion of A and B you'd have different results when using another "third" reference system (provided this one is not stationary in relation to the previous one). And there's no special "stationary" system. Hence, I think time pes equally in both systems A and B. Plus I think that the idea that time pes more slowly in one of two inertial systems that are not stationary in relation to each other can't be based on Lorentz transformations. If you'd like to discuss it please post a reply on this board or email me at tpales@sco.svf.stuba.sk
