Where is the first 200 Billion we sent them? Where did it go? 200 Billion is double Russia's military budget every year. Seems like they are using the money for firewood or something!
Always and forever, this strategy ONLY works if literally EVERY taxpaying sheep (thaaaat includes me) bleats along with it.
It would work flawlessly if that were to happen, as long as the new system is already set to go at the time.
The way I see it, if the fedgov were ever to be stripped down to its actual functional size, the size it ought to be, tiny, as the Founders envisioned, a simple one percent (1%) sales tax on goods except food, blankets, etc. would more than cover it. If that isn't enough, then you trim off some needless govt til it is enough.
One percen sales tax, nobody would bitch about.
States can each have their own reasonable sales tax, after all income taxes are abolished forever as devices of satanic evil.
The beauty of this system: taxpayers in control. Don't like paying the tax? Don't buy so much shit. Simple. Own better stuff, but less of it. Create more space in life for higher quality, more durable goods, with less clutter.
People are creatures of habit; and hardly anything is more uncomfortable for normal citizens than not paying taxes and then worrying about the men in black with guns at your door, threatening and terrorizing your family.

Yachts, Houses, cars, coke and kids. Thats what the taxpayers money bought.
A tax revolt has never been more appealing.

Well said. I completely agree. I just hope this tax revolt comes this week.
It won't, but that's OK.
