RE: Im still waiting for you to show me the benefits to the US economy and the average US worker of the free trade policies of the past 25years.
The USA economy GREW for nearly 20 years before the turn of the 21st century with low unemployment to boot.
I’m willing to bet that if we simplified our tax code and decreased the regulatory burden on business AND made all states right-to-work, we’d be creating jobs right now EVEN with our present tariff system in place.
But no, I am not dismissing your proposal, i.e. a simple tariff with ZERO income tax. The latter ( including the elimination of that hostile organization called the IRS ) appeals to me.
But they have to COME TOGETHER. I don’t want one being put in without the other being eliminated.
Would you be willing to completely replace the income tax with tariffs and sales taxes?
