Redistribution of collected taxes to citizens (and non-citizens)account for over 2/3’s of our government spending.
Problem is we need to cut 2/3 or more of total government spending to even begin digging ourselves out of the hole.
We started with a flat tax in the early 20th century and we ended up where we are now. It’s time to give the Fair tax a chance to allow entrepreneurs and investors a chance at growing our way out of this mess. It might be too late. But it is the only feasible path forward that I see.
There are legitimate voices on both sides of the fence, but those sounds get drowned out by the greedy screams. And then we over-correct.
