How about, abolish the IRS, don’t replace the income tax with anything, and just shut down the whole damned federal government?

“To dream the impossible dream...”

Excellent idea. A number of people have pointed out over the years that the actual, limited, functions of the FedGov listed in Art 1 Sec 8 could be paid for almost entirely out of tariffs, impost duties, and user fees.

We’d literally need to “slit some throats” to get government cut back that far. They won’t let go of that power willingly.

That would be a dream come true.

But we gotta do it in steps. Incrementally. They way the Left has been dismantling the Republic for the last 100 years.
