Hmm....I keep wanting to believe that a plain 10% "flat Tax" would be the best way to do this, since the looters ARE going to loot, no matter what. All of this "talk" keeps adding up to just making the smoke a different color and making the mirrors more polished. It still is a game where you have to try to "out loot the looters" using all their weird gambits and tricks. There is still way too much money to be taken by keeping the current system, and all the "donations" it causes to be made, to political campaigns.

    I would agree that some bankers are good people. But as one gets higher up in banking they become drunk on the idea of using government to the advantage of the bank. Given the banking laws and fdic, banking has become a swamp and needs to be drsined

    We had that effect here, home prices dropped, and I can send you my tax statements, as they went with bonds and fees and added "short term" taxes not part of the base taxes and my taxes never went down. Now, thanks to the expiration of some of short term stuff, my taxes are the same but my "valuation" went up 80K this year.

    Sorry music, but I will have to disagree, Trump presented a populist program and had no way to accomplish it with the current structure, so he was doomed. He was elected by the chunk of America desperately seeking a change, and not a change like the Obamanations. He may mean well, but he really is not a stable element, he is all over the map day to day and his rants just add to the lack of credibility. When ran against a criminal, there was no way he could lose, and the fact the media had no clue he would win, is just more fuel for the fact we are living in a dangerously dysfunctional, corrupt society.

    I tend to think we ARE living in tribalism now, just in a different way, between politics, race, sex, it has all severed to shatter the bonds of a society. The US is not a nation anymore, it is a collection of tribes, and each is serving it's own interests only. I think that is one reason why there is no philosophic discussion or analysis, there is no search for a better way to live. Philosophy now is practiced as a way to support one tribe or another and is bent to their will.

    He wants what's right. His strength is with his action.He has strength with his action. His action is his strength.More to be like him upgrades."Colorful" is one description.His exploits are more than legendary.Heroes and superheroes may look up to him. His is with sound reasoning.

    Ragnar is a pirate and/or anti-pirate. He's against the materialization of the notion of Robin Hood.

    He's with principles. Who is not? He'll agree he agrees with capitalism. He gets to ride in expensive automobiles.He's toward guiding America up. Who's not? Who has the answers? Who is one to believe? Not oneself? What of believing Donald Trump?

    His words are to lower taxes. If one asks him, it's correct. He's not to deviate from it. He's not to deviate from honesty about it.One may agree he's more familiar with money than most because he's a billionaire. One may agree he's a billionaire and good.

    There are certain people in a bank who are very good. A number in a bank are honest. They may include ones adoring honesty.

    No interference with wealth and wealthy people. Donald Trump is not stupid. He's with a high IQ. He graduates from The Wharton School Of Business. He's with a family loving him.. He has billions of dollars.He's one of the greatest presidents. He directs to class and wealth. He's a savior.He continues the ways of the greatest presidents. He's favoring America. He talks of making America great again. He's a rescuer away from an America less great than the America he wants America to get to be and maintain.He advocates a great America. He is with a great America. He's an American. He's a greater American than lots of people.He loves good things. He is not looking stupid. He's an advocate of good things.He's the commander-in-chief.Talking and against him is not with the cause of righteousness. His is the strength of America.
