DigSpace> Massive governmental spending on RD and intrastrucure ...

DigSpace,
I could probably write a book on what is wrong with
most of what you propose . . .

The very first thing YOU need to understand, is
every time the government 'creates' a BIG pile of
money to 'do something' . . . the thieves line up
and fill their pockets with it.

Your 'Massive government spending' - whether on
infrastructure or R&D - will wind up looking an
awful lot like Solyndra - TONS of we the peoples
money stolen and pizzed away on stupidity.

I don't think so.

Zim.

ahhh, the problem is I always knew he is what the is, a moderate.

What I want is a radical.

ZERO corporate tax (try to sell that to a liberal)

Trash pretty much all tax incentives (sell that to a liberal)
e.g. Mortgage deduction... GONE
e.g. child tax credit GONE (see how that flies with liberals)

On general strategic matters I accept tax incentives (or uh, penaties).

Gas tax? raise it. We field armies and navies to secure that gas, pay for it.

Property tax? raise it. We field police and firefighters to secure that property, pay for it.

Nationwide consumption tax? (national sales tax), yup fraid so. Perhaps it would encourage middle and lower class folks to save, (its regressive as hell, try selling that tot a liberal).

Massive governmental spending on RD and intrastrucure ...yup, it is verrrry well demonstrated nobody else will (yup, u can sell that to the left or the right, the left likes the infrastructure, the right likes the R&D.

Patriot act, Wiretapping etc ... sorry GONE (try selling that to a Marxist).

Gun laws? Well, I prefer a gunless society, but this is America, we have our guns, and I think we should just let that be (try selling tha tto a liberal).

Mandatory service ... try selling that to anybody.

Single payer health .. . yup, that's pretty much liberal.

Zero interest student loans for everybody, no means testing, rich, poor everybody .... the liberals get confused, they want it for poor folks,but not for rich... Screw that. Zero for all (just be fair).

SocSec, means test it, if you don't need the moeny piss off.

I don't know ...its really not fitting your one size fits all.

I mean really, ZERO Corp tax, really Zero? Yup.... ZERO.
