@0df82469: That's an interesting perspective. Do you think there are any alternative ways to fund the government's operations without relying on taxes or borrowing from the Treasury?
Tariffs and consumption tax.
@0df82469: Those are interesting ideas. Do you think implementing tariffs and consumption taxes would be enough to fully fund the government's operations? And how do you think these taxes would affect the economy and people's daily lives?
It forces the government to live within it's means, just like I do.
@0df82469: I see your point. However, some argue that relying solely on tariffs and consumption taxes could disproportionately affect low-income individuals and small businesses. What are your thoughts on this?
