Somebody should run on a platform where: 1. Income tax becomes truly voluntary; check a box and don't have any withholding or tax at all; 2. Nothing replaces income tax, like flat tax; NOTHING; 3. Any taxation comes from import/export, or Federal corporations, or taxes for transporting product across stat lines IF IT IS A CORPORATION THAT DOES IT; no taxation for private people transporting stuff anywhere (these have been in place from the beginning of the country). If Trump was for the people, he would have done this. He could afford to do it. And he isn't another Ross Perot. I am in favor of the general construct of taxes for a variety of reasons. Mostly practical as I see things. Also a strongly progressive strategy help address the Achilles heal of 'capitalism' which is that ultimately the winner ends up with all the chips. I am very much against the way money is being used to centralize control. Currently at the Federal level, but in the minds eye of the globalists, above that. Basically funds are allocated to achieve goals with a good portion going into the pockets of those who implement the centrally managed policies. The funny thing is that it's not 'taxes' per-se that are used since they are not needed by those who own the printing press. At the Fed level taxes are mainly used for the (necessary) transfer of wealth mechanism, but there is a huge amount of subterfuge, cronyism, skimming, etc. Utterly corrupt. I would like to see the deprecation of income taxes going to the Feds for that reason alone. To me it makes sense to have strongly progressive taxes on things that people uses in excess of a basic need. One example would be transportation. If one wants an expensive car or a jet aircraft, fine, but expect progressive taxes. Or property ownership. If one (person or especially a corporation) controls productive property over a certain threshold, progressive taxes kick in. To mitigate the problem, break it up which results in more people owning more property, or suck it up and brag about how much one pays in taxes. It's not intellectually ideal (to me), but it's the most practical solution with the best results that I can see.

Middle America is sick of the globalist trade deals that have sent their middle class jobs overseas or down south of the border and that's the main reason Trump has caught on in such a large way. Also, republicans are sick of the direction that the Bush klan has pushed the GOP over the last 25 years. In almost every instance, the political class of both parties have put the American people last and illegal immigrants/refugees/foreign interests first. Trump is the response to all of that. Too much globalism tends to revert back to nationalism and you're seeing it in Europe these days as well.

Trump Enrages the War PartyThis election season is so much fun because Donald Trump keeps enraging all the right people – and his timing is perfect. Just as the Republican convention was at its height, with his running mate up there on the podium perorating about the alleged threat of Vladimir Putin, along comes Donald with an interview in the New York Times that has the War Party yelling and screaming bloody murder. The head of NATO; the foreign policy pundits; even some alleged "non-interventionists" – they're all aghast that Trump is questioning the supposedly sacred tripwires that commit us to going to war if Lower Slobbovia invades Upper Slobbovia.
It started with this article, in which Trump's views on NATO, the Turkey coup, and other matters were summarized, but it caused such a commotion that the Times published the entire interview, and it is really a sight to see – good news for us anti-interventionists, and very bad news for the internationalists, i.e. the entire foreign policy Establishment.
It starts off with Times reporter David Sanger trying to bait him into attacking Paul Ryan, who, he says, "presented a much more traditional Republican, engaged internationalist view of the world." Sanger reminds him of his previous comments on NATO: that our shiftless "allies" need to start paying their fair share of the costs of the alliance. Sanger adds in Korea and Japan, and ask: what if they won't pay? What then?
Trump's answer is vintage Trump: "Then yes, I would be absolutely prepared to tell those countries, 'Congratulations, you will be defending yourself.'"
He is challenged by Sanger – who asks most of the questions, by the way – who avers that our system of alliances is in our interests as well, because of "trade." Read more at https://www.lewrockwell.com/2016/07/justin-raimondo/trump-enrages-war-party/.

Wow, what an incredibly narrow world view.
And you're right -- it won't fool anyone, because only the alternative media will touch it ATM.
Lisa Bloom took the case....so..... It's real.

Congressional Budget Office (CBO) estimates that Hillary Clinton will bring the debt up to 87% of GDP by 2026. This would be devastating to our economy. Please do not vote for the big debt Clinton.

Report: Murdoch Son 'Horrified by Potential Trump Presidency' Forced Out Roger AilesGabriel Sherman, whom Slate describes as "the nation's foremost Fox News beat reporter," yesterday told Slate: "James Murdoch is, by my reporting, extremely turned off and horrified by the concept of a Trump presidency, and he sees the politics of the right-wing populism fueled by Fox News as a catalyst that allowed Trump to become the Republican nominee. He's been wanting to get Ailes out." Gretchen Carlson's post-firing "sexual harassment" suit was the perfect excuse. Ailes, despite supporting Megyn Kelly, is said to be friends with Trump and talk to him regularly. Now, he's been forced out at Fox News by Rupert Murdoch's hyper-leftist son just some three months before the election. From Isaac Chotiner's interview with Carlson in Slate:Isaac Chotiner: Was the decision to force Ailes out one that caused a significant dispute within the Murdoch family? Gabriel Sherman: Oh, without question, the last two weeks illustrate the shifting power dynamics within the Murdoch family over the control and future of Rupert Murdoch's media empire. Based on all of my reporting, it is unquestionable that the swift ousting of Ailes would not have happened if Rupert's two adult sons, James and Lachlan, had not been elevated last year to co-leadership positions of the company.
