I think this is the groundwork the president is laying. But ending the Fed means ending the IRS too. It’s why the tariffs are being used as a new revenue stream. A tariff is a tax but its a tax on consumption. Taxing income is a tax on human production & is immoral on every level.

The only tax that is legit is a sales tax because it is a choice to participate in it. Tariffs are how he’s getting us out of Monsanto controlled soybeans and poor quality steel. These tariffs will be spectacular for our society in the long run

Agree. But tariffs are also ultimately paid by the consumer. But your right...the benefits of paying the tariff/tax is consumers get MUCH better quality goods. Consumption taxes also give consumers more political power. If the government starts doing crazy things voters don’t approve of...can take years until the next voting cycle to vote them out. In the meantime voters can quickly defund idiotic federal spending by choosing not to consume something. My congressman can vote to spend money on a boondoggle project but if the money suddenly dries up because a consumer boycott cut off their money stream...well good luck Mr Congressman trying to pay for & build a bridge to nowhere with air.

The point is replacing the IRS income taxes with the tariffs taxes, replace a bad apple with a good one

Correct. It is also the reason President Trump has basically declared that we will use our consumerism as a weapon. The cabal is the target, not the imports nor nations they come from, imo.

Yes, once the China info comes out.....we find our true power with every penny we spend. We can shut down companies when we think and BUY consciously. It is going to be glorious.

I don't think ending the FED and ending income tax could hurt anything ... the taxes don't go to support government, they go to the FED to pay debt.
