@blkdlaur Here's something to think about...
The 2023 Defense Allocation passed three weeks ago total baseline $817 Billion dollars. Now think back to all of the arguments on BOTH sides regarding the economy and stimulus packages.
Do you realize you could take .1% of the defense budget ($817 million) and give EVERY American $2 million. probably 3 if you exclude minors?
With that kind of windfall, I don't think most citizens would complain about paying taxes on it, AND it would be a high powered economic engine.
I thought it was a crazy fantasy when it was suggested to me, but I'm finding it hard to poke holes into it.
