You are correct but it will NEVER happen in this government, not just this administration but this government will self-preserve and never let it happen.
The feral gubment is overhead just like any portion of a business that does not produce revenue. Janitors, accountants, shop maintenance people and so forth are all overhead. No business can survive long with overhead costs as high as we pay for the feral gubment and neither will we.
Any person who tries to argue against a flat tax is just making excuses. But what about the poor? Exclude X per person no matter who you are for a cost of living that is indexed to inflation and let ‘er rip. The feral gubment is the cost of everyone doing business and should be a flat allocation for everyone to chip in on in direct proportion to any kind of income they obtain by any means.
It will NEVER happen with this feral gubment.
I’m sick of excuses for everything.
That may very well be true which says we should do the second thing first: eliminate the unconstitutional 80% portion of the mostly illegal $4 trillion federal government.
Then push for 10% flat tax and they won’t have any overhead to complain about.
We’re at war - freedom vs. tyranny. Many of us just don’t realize it yet.
