Seems to me that the only serious expense with a Constitutional Republic is national defense, and that can be paid with tariffs. Perhaps greatly simplified state and local governments can be funded with a simple tax: take the budget, and divide by the population. No property tax, so no one can lose their property to government. No education funding at all. EDUCATION BY THE PARENTS!!!!
