How else do we get taxes though? Believe me, I'm all for reform, but who is going to pay for things like national defense? Libertarians want to gut the military even more than the Democrats. How is President Trump going to enact revenge if we hamstring all the government departments that are going to help him?
Here we go again with gutting the military. Do you realize that 37% of federal employees work for the DoD? Another 11% work for Veteran Affairs. So, yeah, you can fire 95% of them, if you don't mind hamstringing the military and screwing over those who have already fought and sacrificed for our country. Not to mention other federal positions, like postal workers, weathermen, and several other small departments that keep things like GPS or the highway system working.
For the first approximately 80 yrs, except for a brief period during the Civil War, the US survived on tariffs Even in the 1920's, only 2% of the US expenditures came from income tax. From 1868 until 1913, 90 percent of all revenue came from taxes on liquor, beer, wine and tobacco.
Enter the Depression and FDR, with the Fed's blessing, throwing money around like only a Democrat can. He and the politicians rubbing their grubby hands together once they realized they could steal money from US citizens and call it "income tax".
Not to mention these days, Federal employment is insane. There are 3 million Federal employees earning an avg. of $100,000/year.
3000000 x $100000 = 300 BILLION DOLLAR A YEAR
Praying POTUS will drastically cut the number of employees once he is reelected.
The income tax came in well before FDR, when the Republicans were in charge because the federal government couldn't function on taxes on alcohol and tobbaco. The expansion of the federal government led to the greatest economic surge this country has ever seen. We couldn't have fought WW2 without it. And where will these job cuts come from? Even if you wiped out the entire Department of Justice, that would only be about 3% of the federal work force. The largest federal government departments are the DoD (37%) and the VA (11%). It would be hard to make cuts without basically destroying the military and screwing over veterans. How would we pay for all those? And why should a bunch of California billionaires get all their money tax-free?
Alright, so you cut foreign aid and have reduced the federal budget by.... (calculating)... 1%. Then what? Should we just axe the military, medicaid, and social security?
Better to fight a war on foreign soil than our own. Do you think if we just pulled back and did our own thing, the rest of the world would leave us alone? Do you remember 9/11?
Executive Immunity and the Lawfare stuff are two things they’re looking at. I need to look back at their schedule too. They have some big stuff they’re going to be deciding on from here into September I think.
This article mentions the big 5 to be decided besides the more unknowns that I’ll have to check on. Abortion access too! That’s an obvious DemoLib Rrrrhheeehehehee head spinner Kek!
This also can affect the ATF crap. Maybe that is why the bump stock ruling came out early. Chevron will affect all of the govt agencies that like to make their own rules and tell us they are laws.
IRS nullified. Yes pls
From our lips to God's ears.
I'm going to wake Ron Paul up lol. Today might be the day

Cut off foreign aid (money laundering).
Awwww... No more 10% for the Big Guy!

Except the US military has mainly been used for anything but defense.
So true! Our military is used to fight other countries wars. When was the last time they defended the US? It's been a while.

Fences are being assembled around the Supreme Court today. Big decisions coming on the cooked up Enron obstruction felony used against 300+ J6 prisoners, and President Trump. Also the decision on Presidential Immunity.
That tweet is gone now.
Thanks, the comment title was the x post and there was video of the fence.
I think it will be overturning Chevron.
Maybe a pro-Trump decision, too.
