Yep. The obvious answer is to defund the government. So let's cut all taxes for the rich and the corperations. Not only that, how about defunding Social Security, Medicare, Vet benefits, and all scientific research. The true Republican Platform.

The Left way- we are always "one" tax from making everything OK
or just one more gov't program will solve the problem

Yet, it never does


We could take every single dollar of the rich and it would not cover our debts. The monies will ultimately come from the middle class since there is more of us

How much money should the gov't allow us to keep?
What tax rate does the left think is fair?

40%, 50%, 60% ? (probably an underestimate for the left)
