Tax reform without spending reform is a fool’s game.
The real solution is to force fedgov back within the confines of the Constitution.
1. Eliminate Dept of Education, Dept of Agriculture, Dept of Energy, HHS, Commerce, and get out of the environmental business all together.
2. Eliminate the Income Tax model in favor of the Fair Tax Model (without that stupid prebate stuff).
3. Force all government spending to be built on zero-based budgets rather than the current charlatan’s scheme.
4. Implement rules in both Houses of the Congress that each bill be limited to a single subject, and prohibit off-subject amendments; too many are used to garner support for legislation that cannot stand on its own.
5. Eliminate the filibuster.
6. Pass a balanced budget Amendment to the Constitution, with exceptions ONLY for wars declared by the Congress.
7. Shut down the border, completely. Secure the Nation’s territorial integrity.
8. Round up and deport all illegals. No need to send them to Club Med; just drop them off at the border, wet or dry.
9. Return ALL welfare programs to the State and Local level, where it rightly belongs; local even better than State.
10. Scrap Zero-don’t-care. It doesn’t need a replacement. The government has NO business in the healthcare business, at any level.
Not an exhaustive list, but a good start...IMO.
Exactly right.
We need to get Fedzilla back into its Constitutional cage.
Not asking for much, are you?
