Make the wealthy pay more taxes!!

---

I agree. Tax the ever living sh*t out of Opra, Mebron, Hollywood, NFL, NBA, Bill Gates…etc. Take it all.

---

I get what you're saying; however, you can confiscate all of there current net worth and it still wouldn't balance the budget, this year…

---

Oh, I know. I just think it would be great for all these ultra rich, who support the far left, to pay through the nose. Let them put their money where their mouth is.

---

Flat tax with "Zero" deductions for all people. No taxes on business. Or, a retail tax and removal of all income taxes.

---

The simplicity of this approach is highly appealing.

The regressive nature of such a structure is not.

---

explain the regressive nature, please…

---

Explain what regressive taxes are?

Or how sales or flat income taxes fit?

Both sales and flat taxes are applied using the same rate regardless of income so they impact lower-income earners disproportionately. That's the definition of a regressive tax.

---

Do you think lower waged citizens have a responsibility to pay taxes into the Federal Treasury? If so, what tax should they pay (not the percentage)?

Are you asking what type of tax they should pay? Or what amount?

Plus if you go to a retail tax, you're going to basically create a black market for goods and services.

---

We are ready have a black market for taxes, prostitution, drugs, etc…

---

That's really not a good argument. Bad policy has created those issues. It's not really a good idea to add another one to the pile.

Same as we have now. Bracketed income taxes, property taxes, etc.

Yeah, we're not going to tax our way out of our budget deficit. Spending cuts have to be a huge part of this.

The government can't ever take in enough money to overcome imprudent spending.

Start with defense. That's the gigantic low-hanging fruit. And go from there based on additional need.

Respecfully, you have to start with defense and an entitlement. You can't cherry pick. To get to a good solution, you need pain on both sides of the isle, and then you're still going to have to raise taxes on everyone. If we do it now, it won't be as drastic and you won't have as serious of a cut for entitlements. You also need to get entitlement spending under control before the boomers all fully retire. By then it will be too late.

DeSantis is not the threat to the Swamp/Cabal that Trump is. Soros would prefer Santis.

Damn you are gullible. How much money has the Orange Clown Donnie grifted from you?
Trump is the swamp. More corrupt than anyone else in Washington.
Only delusional gullible rubes like yourself still believe he cares about anyone other than himself.

America First means trade, immigration, and foreign policy

There are other important policies

But this is what America First means
