Consumption taxes, donations, fines, government investments, and tariffs are good sources of revenue, not income or corporate tax.

Daily Question #48

What is your stance on economic regulation?

Remove all regulations and corporate taxes, pursue a Laissez-Faire economy.

You have to have it to some degree, but not so much that you reduce the dynamic to crony capitalism like what has happened here in the US.

Decades of corporate lobbying have created a jungle of institutionalized corruption that has overgrown the marketplace and turned it into a vipers nest.
There are days I would like to napalm the whole length and breadth of K Street.

You want business sanely regulated?
You have to reign in the corporate lobbyists.
