Omnipotent Government, Not Trump, Is the Problem

Posted on by

“Many of the people who are critics of President Trump don’t realize that they themselves are partly responsible for much of what Trump is doing. That’s because over the years they have supported the assumption of dictatorial powers by the president. In doing so, they always assumed that their favorite ideal candidate would end up being the one wielding and exercising such powers.  They assumed the risk that someone like Trump would end up being the one doing so.”

Internet Sales Taxes Are Economy-Sapping Domestic Tariffs

Posted on by

“Here’s hoping the internet tariff is revisited by future Courts, as it’s plainly a restraint on trade.  If cities and states really want a bigger cut of our consumption they should either raise local sales taxes, or they should demand that we report what we purchase outside where we live.  Rather than hiding behind the courts in order to force non-constituent businesses to collect taxes for them, they should stand up and collect taxes on their own.  And when voters vote them out, a message about excessive taxation will have been sent to all grasping politicians.”
