So apparently Trump is thinking about abolishing income tax via executive order.

It'd be fucking hilarious if he did
As a single white dude income tax is worse than every other deduction on my paycheck added together. It absolutely bends me over without lube every goddamn week.
I would seriously have 5 digits more a year if it wasn't for the fed income tax.
Even if it's replaced with something else (like a fed sales tax or something) it wouldn't be anywhere near as high.
 
Just say you want the Darwin Awards to be how we deal with IRL druggies.

People shit on DARE and the scare tactics of the 80s (Len Bias died from a single hit of cocaine! Dudes who went halfway to full Joe Bonham disfigurement with chewing tobacco induced cancer destroying his lower face!) with drugs, but that stops working when people realize you are trying to scare them straight with worst case scenario stories and say they are going to get high to spite you, damn the risk. And dealers won't care because most of them only care about making money.

Purging fentanyl from the streets is a necessary move at this point because saying "fuck the junkies" and doing nothing has just made shit worse and caused more deaths.
Part of the reason fentanyl hit the streets is because we were handing out opioid prescriptions like candy. Hell, a lot of physicians were receiving kickbacks from pharmaceutical companies to prescribe their opioids. Combine this with an economic recession and you've got the perfect pastime for middle America. Now, China is pumping this shit into our communities.

Now, there's a huge difference between stuff like alcohol, tobacco, cannabis, LSD, etc., and stuff like methamphetamines, opioids, cocaine, the shit that will easily kill you. Anyone who wants to legalize or decriminalize the latter is just asking for trouble. There's a reason Oregon walked decriminalization back.
 
Hilarious idea? Yes. Good idea? No. If he wants to go that route he'd better have new revenue streams in place first.
This is fair but he's already planning on tariffs on Mexico and Canada so I wouldn't be surprised if he just decided to slap most of our major trade partners with tariffs to make up the difference if income tax goes away.

And honestly maybe abolishing income tax without a revenue stream will light a fire under congresses ass to start cutting government programs (kill the ATF, do it you coward fags)
 
... Can he? Wouldn't that completely gut the Fed's income? Doesn't the rule about the debt ceiling mean he can't cut taxes without permission?
Income Tax is something he can just tell the IRS not to collect.

Congress decided what gets taxed but it's up to the executive branch to enforce taxation and he can just refuse to do so
 
YEAR OF THE CHUD BAY-BEE!!!

I haven't been this optimistic for years. I don't even live in the US, I'm a bong so am used to being fully ignored by my government, as I do not have brown skin. But if Trump can prove common sense ideas actually work to improve the lives of the native population, sooner or later enough normies are going to noootice and hand out the punishment on voting day to any political parties that want to continue with globohomo idealism.
 
At the same time, trying to kill your son goes beyond any standard moral convictions
If that little fuck had no qualms about doing it to his father, he will gladly do it to others given the opportunity. In the hypothetical situation I was in the fathers shoes, I don't care if that evil little shit is my son or not, I'm not letting that worthless nigger get the chance to ever do it to someone else ever again. Certain actions show you are well beyond redemeption, I'd argue going Judas on your father over fucking political opinions is one of them.
 
Yes, but he was convicted for being white. Nignogs get away with the same and a slap on the wrist. The judge expressly stated this. The release of one idiot lolbert is a lesser evil than letting the whites get ten times harsher sentences because of gibsmedat dindu nuffin
Agree and I’ve changed my mind about the post I made about Ross yesterday. I was not aware of the judge giving him a harsher sentence due to his race at the time.

He’s still guilty but I’m willing to say he did his time seeing as how he’s been inside for a decade.
 
Also what a lot of people are forgetting is the Trump admin is making a concerted effort to hire non-political normies to important government positions BY NOMINATION, specifically those that are America First.
I really think that this is the event that causes the politician to fall out of favor just like traditional celebrities did when they were not effective during the election. Thing's are changing and it's for the better. You cannot lie about doing nothing anymore.
 
And that's how a lesbian got to cosplay as a Bishop on live TV while demanding the president have mercy of on the LGBTBBBQ and the people who mow her lawn, while quoting not one verse of scripture. Honestly I think it's good she didn't quote scripture. She probably would have caught fire if she did.
I was wondering how she got into a position that she could be up there.

Thank God it wasn't Bishop Karen advising Charles Martel and the Franks at Poitiers.
 
I'm glad that Trump is tearing down the shitty parts of the Fed.

I wonder if this administration has plans to make sure State governments are not actively denying the Constitutional Rights of citizens, though.

Go after blue states for 2A violations. Make them kneel.

He's mentioned it before as a way to relieve the working people whose wages are stagnant while prices rise, frankly it's the order I'm most excited for because my bosses have denied me a raise three years in a row and my bills just keep getting higher and higher.

Edited to add: Technically the income tax was always supposed to be a temporary measure to pay for the civil war, so by doing this Trump is technically officially ending the civil war, which amuses me.
