Here's how I would tax.

First a low flat tax across the board, except for the "just above the poverty line." They would have no tax.

Next a sales tax.

Let's take for example a TV, a car and a house.

The average cost of TV would be calculated each year. Any new TV purchased over the average cost would be taxed up to 100%

Same with cars.

Same with houses.

Same with all purchases.

So, for instance there would be an average cost calculated for a house for a family of 4 as there would be for just a couple or 2.

If not enough taxes are collected overall, than the flat tax would become more progressive and or "the up to 100%" tax would be higher.

note: I don't care about people buying used stuff to avoid tax, because that source is going to disappear eventually with everyone doing it.

Of course, I don't know if this would work. I'm just Imagining.

edit - as a matter of fact Elon Musk would pay way less housing tax than Bill Gaters. Elon has a shack or something outside SpaceX. I think that's all he has in housing. But then all his over the average hotel room stays would be likely expensive.

As far as I'm concerned Trump took one of stupidest routes on illegal immigration. If the pentolites for hiring illegals aren't high enough, keep making them higher until employers are afraid to ever get caught. Then make sure hiring of temporary workers is solid for farmers and such. Then the strain on the border is limited to criminals and you don't need to employ national guard, FBI agents, in massive expansive border policy.

Trump obviously loves a police state. 'Cause that's what it looks like.


A secure border looks like a police state?

If you think what Trump is doing is stupid he must be on to something. I’ll say it yet again. You and other liberals kept screaming like little fairies that “we need a comprehensive solution and not just a wall” from 2016-2020. Now we have that and you are crying even more about it. Just be a man about it and say you want open borders and have no problem wilt illegals.

Trump shut the border tighter than a liberal’s personal wallet. He is cracking down on sanctuary areas. And he is getting lots to self deport. It is already relieving stress on ERs and schools. It is a great thing.

The Dems (DEI proponents, where the 'E' is communism) and Rinos (war related corruptions) need the criminals (illegal aliens) to retain what little power they have left.

Without the criminals, the Banking Cartel can be removed.

That means someone is not constantly lowering our buying power (effectively slave and/or free labor).


But it's like a magic trick of illusion.

The Dems and Rinos can't seem to connect the two.

Possibly because they read and believe the news propaganda.


They're definitely brainwashed.

Why work for free under the illusion?

Other than you being a bigoted racist joke, what else is new? The least manly man has to keep insisting he is one. "Cause no one would know.

A secure border is a good thing. You voted for the giggling DEI hire who wanted catch and release. It is not about a “police state” but you want no border security at all. You have the mentality of a child that if we just leave it alone all will be well.

Next you will be calling the homeless shelters being set up in DC “concentration camps” disparaging actual survivors of such places from 1930s Europe to N Korea today. Because people like you don’t want the homeless problem solved either. Your type sees the homeless as a sort of petting zoo that you can visit but don’t have to deal with.

Trump has gotten your side to take the 20 of one 80/20 issue after another. You and the rest of the liberal mouth breathers are going to just go anti-trump in 2028 when he won’t even be on the ballot. And your candidate will go down like Kamala getting her first government job. It will be amusing.

Giggling doesn't have anything to do with competence. Trump is doing more for the Democrats winning seats every day. He's probably doing more for communism and socialism as well if this is supposed to be example of Make America Great again.

Well yes your great DEI hope was incompetent whether she giggled or not. Like the DC DEI hire that didn’t know what chain of command was.

Trump is baiting the Democrats to take unpopular positions one after another. The Democrat Brand is dog dirt right now. If the election were held now the GOP would pick up 30 house seats. Democrats answer will be go all trans again as they do not at all know reality.

I wouldn't think a person passing a Bar Exam would giggle like that.

It would be the first I've ever saw.


It's a sign of being somewhere the person didn't earn from merit.

Although, it could be sex and/or genetic related.

Check how Vegas is doing as Duffman BSssss,


Quote:
As a whole, the U.S. is projected to lose $12.5 billion in international visitor spending this year, according to a report from the World Travel and Tourism Council (WTTC).

Julia Simpson, WTTC president and CEO, said in a statement, “While other nations are rolling out the welcome mat, the U.S. government is putting up the ‘closed’ sign.” The report states that this loss in tourism will deal a blow to the U.S. economy overall, “impacting communities, jobs, and businesses from coast to coast.”

President Donald Trump’s talk of making Canada the 51st state — along with trade disputes — has driven Canadian tourists away.


But arrivals are also down from other key markets, including the U.K., Germany and South Korea. Media reports of detentions at U.S. border crossings, along with government travel warnings, are causing many international travelers to steer clear.
