Nicholas Conrad (nprofile…4r49) Dark Ennui 🖤 (nprofile…c5nc) in fact, our government used to be funded entirely by tarriffs before the federal reserve and IRS existed. this is one major aspect of policy that led to our economic prosperity that peaked around the 1960s
the other aspect, as you mention, is not taxing and regulating our domestic business out of existence. low government spending, low regulation, and a gradual shift from domestic taxation to tarriffs is exactly what's needed. notice that trump is also de-regulating and enabling domestic energy.
our government has done much to incentivize and even FORCE businesses to offshore production. i completely support tarriffs and deregulation and phasing out the IRS entirely
