How do you decide what percent goes to state, and what percent goes to feds?
I love how simple people try to make this countries economic situations.
Robbie says cut military spending, it's just that easy. Cut arms R&D? The military purchases all its arms from private companies, so then all those companies lose money / collapse / fire people. Cut arms production? Same thing with R&D, and we also lose out on all the arms we sell to other countries. Cut back on personnel? Unemployment skyrockets as millions of soldiers are instantly thrown back into population.
Taxes should only be used to fund police and small gov, no armies. We'd all be speaking German now if that were the case. Or what about the roads, I bet you enjoy those? What about your internet, that wouldn't have been around without the .gov. Or what about .. Screw it it's pointless. This is GFY. Everything is simple. derp derp derp
