With all these tax cuts that Trump has done, how is he going to pay for things like the huge military, national defense, this nation's infrastructure, and such ??? Ever increasing massive national debt ??? No wonder why some of his businesses went bankrupt. And how exactly is America going to help take care of the young, old, ill and needy ??? Not at all ??? Even if many parts of the government are privatized, somebody still gets the bill that has to be paid. And with privatization, a bill that includes profits, which would make the goods and services cost more. And with economic inflation, even if kept at 2% annually, is still economic inflation. America is going to collapse one day under it's own weight. America's enemies don't have to defeat America, America will eventually destroy itself and go bankrupt.

@fishshoes5591 They also take their wealth and invest it overseas and hide it in offshore bank accounts. Reality is still reality.

@coke1011 Do you like having national defense, national infrastructure, and things like poor people not living and dying on the streets? Those things cost real money to deal with.

@Chaz_Van That might work in a perfect world, but what if some of those wealthy people and businesses take their wealth and invest it in other nations outside of the USA and/or hide their wealth in offshore bank accounts? Money leaves the USA.

Trump thought the Constitution was toilet paper. Sorry.

@DisenchantedMOFO So, they want the benefits of things like national defense, national infrastructure, etc, but don't want to pay for them. Bastards.

@DisenchantedMOFO a. Reduce the size of the military. Why does the US need a military 8 times larger than other nations? Why not even only 6 or 7 times larger, why 8 times larger? b. Have the NSA stop spying on it's own citizens. That should save money too. c. Have Government officials get the same retirement and medical benefits as the rest of us. There are ways to reduce government spending which could reduce the taxes needed.
