never gonna work. deficits & national debt + unfunded liablities way too high & GDP way too low. exact opposite of the 1950s when everyone's standard of living was improving.

Tax them as in the days of Eisenhower. In those days the rich were rich and we had nice roads and bridges, nice highways, etc. Jobs had benefits for the everyday worker and we used the tax money to take care of everyone. Do that again and add an extra wage earner tax to cover medical care and other needed programs. For those that do not like it and want nothing of it, they can opt out.

I guess if you're too big to fail, you're too big to be ruled and too big to be taxed.

Why pay taxes when you can buy the government and rewrite the laws at your advantage?!

How about having the billionaires and large corporations pay their damn taxes and use it to pay the deficit.
