Another alternate is to eliminate the federal personal income tax. W-2 employees would get immediate increase to their take home pay and employers would get out of tax withholding chores. Feds can just increase the already large deficit spending to cover the tax reduction or reduce spending.



Deficit spending is already the highest it can be without jeopardizing the Dollar. Sometimes I think about them reducing spending instead, but then my alarm clock wakes me up.

They don't need a war to increase deficit spending. They'd have done it already if they could.
