The government shouldn't subsidize anything or anyone. No subsidies and no tax breaks. Period.
The government should:
1. Provide for common infrastructure. Roads, bridges, free open public spaces. 2. Provide for common defense. Protect our national borders and sovereignty. 3. Provide for common law enforcement. Help us protect ourselves, our families, and our property.
That's pretty much all the government needs to do. Whatever that costs, then tax us all for it using a fair, across the board, flat tax, on everyone and every business.
The rest of it is a bunch of pandering, special interest, bullshit.
This 100%. When I grew up there were poor folks. They looked it, lived like it, and that's who they were. Good people mostly, but didn't seem to want to do any better for themselves. After working for around 45 years when I retired my biggest surprise was how many people there were who didn't work. I was amazed how many young healthy looking people were wandering around all day. Realized the reason they could do it was because the .gov was sending them a check. Needs to stop.
We moved up here on the mountain into our vacation home full time back in 2020. I had no idea how many people were on some sort of disability getting a government check every month. It's astonishing. Cherokee and DeKalb counties must be some of the highest ranked for government subsidies to individuals.
Hell... I just Googled it and 33% of the whole state of Alabama is getting a disability check. 1,361,232 adults. Shit...
Libertarian, Pro Life, Isolationist...
Let people be free, let people live, leave other countries alone.
