Taxing unrealized gains would be unconstitutional.

    The more the working people are taxes, the more the working people are guaranteed to forever stay poor as well.

    Your idea for cutting government funding, programs and government spending basically renders the government more useless than it already is.

    Rather than continuing to cut more and more from the patient until nothing is left and they die, we should be scrutinizing the doctors (government officials) more about the choices they make behind closed doors.

    Repealing citizens united would be a start. We can’t get anywhere without preventing government officials from being bought by megacorps. Let’s start there.

      No.

      A government so small that it can be drowned in a bathtub is a free citizenry.

        No, it’s a dead and incapable government.

        Might as well be for all-out anarchy.

        If you want to root our government corruption you go after the officials’ money, not the government’s.

        In the USA we elect them to do a job. We’re basically their bosses already. The problem is with money coming in from elsewhere they’re not beholden to us, so people tend to forget that.

          I am 100% against everything you said. Government itself is the problem. I would argue that government is the greatest evil in society. I’m fully against you on all of it.

            That statement was untrue when Reagan said it and it’s still untrue today.

            How much longer until we see trickle down economics taking effect?
