President-elect Donald Trump once again toyed with the idea on Tuesday of not just implementing large-scale tariffs on foreign imports, but using them to replace the income tax system outright.
Jesus christ, he’s trying to bring about the next Great Depression so that he and his buddies can buy up everything the rest of us have left.
Ok, just the quickest ducking shows half of the federal govement’s revenue comes from income tax.
So go for it, just a quick three month embargo by China or interruption in international trade for any other reason like maybe further spreading of the avian flu in California and you’ve got your government shrunk to nothing at all.
So you understand the plan perfectly. Government regulation isn’t a problem, if the government doesn’t exist.
Yep, this is just a Starve the Beast strategy.
“I don’t want to abolish government. I simply want to reduce it to the size where I can drag it into the bathroom and drown it in the bathtub.” – Grover Norquist
Jesus Christ that’s scary. Why are we paying?! We didn’t used to have an income tax. Take it out of the corporations, let them raise prices and we’ll consume less.
LOL, just kidding. Keep consuming. BTW, I can grow potatoes and spices, make charcoal and gun powder. Anyone here know how to do anything but level up in Minecraft? Anyway, carry on.

It’s ok you can stop now, you won the election.
