You want to use the nanny-state to prevent them from making the choice

Once again, great spin. You're saying instead of creating a free country where citizens were free of personal income tax and could freely compete with each other in the domestic market, our Founders created a nanny state?

The nanny state is the result of the corporatist fascism that "free traders" love. It didn't exist until the globalist "free traders" infested our government bent on corrupting it beyond recognition. You're starting to sound a little ridiculous now, and your abhorrence to the US Constitution is showing.

I'm all in favor of no personal income tax and free competition. But the fact that tariffs may have made sense 2 centuries ago doesn't mean they're a good idea now. And there simply is no way to argue that tariffs don't limit the choices of Americans to spend their money as they see fit.

The nanny state is the result of the corporatist fascism that "free traders" love.

So, in your mind, giving Americans more choices in how to spend their money equals "corporatist fascism?" How the heck does that work?

It didn't exist until the globalist "free traders" infested our government bent on corrupting it beyond recognition.

The nanny-state was created by people who think they know better than the average American how to run their lives. Who here supports using the government to control Americans' decisions? You do.

You're starting to sound a little ridiculous now, and your abhorrence to the US Constitution is showing.

Which of my posts on this thread show "an abhorrence to the US Constitution." Be specific.
