People move fast around here!
Less spending = smaller government. Nazi!
Tell me again, Bill Kristol, how he’s nothing like Reagan.
Reality: Like all incoming presidents, Trump will be scrambling to ready a budget request to submit to Congress for fiscal year 2018, which begins on Sept 1, 2017.
Music to my ears!
Defining the “commerce clause” thru budgetary restraint.
Get the DoE back to mananging our nuclear materials, which is why it was created, not to meddle in energy markets.
Get NASA focused on the climate on MARS or outsource it
Pull the FCC back into it’s traditional regulatory and enforcement mode, not forcing tech that nobody wants
So easy!
Good times! :-)
NO! SHOUT IT FROM THE ROOFTOPS!
POST IT A THOUSAND TIMES!
SPREAD THE WORD!...................
Don’t ya know it
About every 7th segment is some tripe pushing the homosexual agenda or some other garbage.
I do not care to be force to pay for it.
Shoot! No more subsidized art made from garbage, excrement and twisted metal? Say it ain’t so!!
An axe is OK but I would prefer they use a chain saw.
Millions in wasted taxpayer money. Trump should allocate zero dollars to every Dept and agency (national security and military excepted). Let them put together a list of necessary requirements along with the cost of each requirement.
From related threads …
Note that a previous generation of state sovereignty-respecting justices had clarified that Congress is prohibited from appropriating taxes in the name of state power issues, essentially any issue that Congress cannot justify under its constitutional Article I, Section 8-limited powers. This is evidenced by the following excerpt.
”Congress is not empowered to tax for those purposes which are within the exclusive province of the States.” - Justice John Marshall, Gibbons v. Ogden, 1824.
Based on the Court’s statement above, here is a rough approximation of how much taxpayers should be paying Congress annually to perform its Section 8-limited power duties imo.
Given that the plurality of clauses in Section 8 deal with defense, and given that the Department of Defense budget for 2015 was $500+ billion, I will generously round up the $500+ billion figure to $1 trillion (but probably much less) as the annual price tag of the federal government to the taxpayers, not the $5 trillion annual budget that was being projected for the feds before Trump was elected.
In other words, the corrupt media, including Obama guard dog Fx Noise, should not be reporting multi-trillion dollar annual federal budgets in budget discussions without mentioning the Supreme Court’s clarification of Congress’s limited power to appropriate taxes.
Patriots need to get Trump up to speed on the idea that a good percentage of the federal taxes that he, his rich friends, and possibly all other taxpayers have been paying throughout their lives are probably unconstitutional.
Patriots need to work with Trump to put a stop to unconstitutional federal taxes. Then the states will probably find a tsunami of new revenues that they won’t know what to do with, establishing their own healthcare and retirement social spending programs for starters.
Drain the swamp! Drain the swamp!
Remember in November ’18 !
Since Trump entered the ’16 presidential race too late for patriots to make sure that there were state sovereignty-respecting candidates on the primary ballots, patriots need make sure that such candidates are on the ’18 primary ballots so that they can be elected to support Trump in draining the unconstitutionally big federal government swamp.
Such a Congress will also be able to finish draining the swamp with respect to getting the remaining state sovereignty-ignoring, activist justices off of the bench.
Noting that the primaries start in Iowa and New Hampshire in February ‘18, patriots need to challenge candidates for federal office in the following way.
Patriots need to qualify candidates by asking them why the Founding States made the Constitution’s Section 8 of Article I; to limit (cripple) the federal government’s powers.
Patriots also need to find candidates that are knowledgeable of the Supreme Court's clarifications of the federal government’s limited powers listed below.
“Congress is not empowered to tax for those purposes which are within the exclusive province of the States.” —Justice John Marshall, Gibbons v. Ogden, 1824.
”State inspection laws, health laws, and laws for regulating the internal commerce of a State, and those which respect turnpike roads, ferries, &c. are not within the power granted to Congress [emphasis added].” —Gibbons v. Ogden, 1824.
”From the accepted doctrine that the United States is a government of delegated powers, it follows that those not expressly granted, or reasonably to be implied from such as are conferred, are reserved to the states, or to the people. To forestall any suggestion to the contrary, the Tenth Amendment was adopted. The same proposition, otherwise stated, is that powers not granted are prohibited [emphasis added].” —United States v. Butler, 1936.
Eliminate ethanol subsidies.
Eliminate foreign aid to countries that vote against us more than 1/3 of the time at the UN.
Eliminate ALL aid to the Paleoswinian terrorists.
Dramatically cut “contributions” to the UN, and cut off UNESCO entirely.
Eliminate ALL payments to any partisan political entities - lots of liberal/radical Left ones are getting mega-bucks from all of us.
Strangle the EPA - reduce it by at least 1/3.
End NASA’s “outreach” to Moslems. WTF is that?!
Beef up revenues by eliminating the ban on post-1986 full autos for civilians...at $200 each, that could raise billions over the next 8 years, not to mention a large increase in federal ammo taxes (those boys eat a LOT of ammo).
That's one "fundamental change" I hope is implemented.
