How about abolishing the Fed, which is a foreign owned and privately held corporation. Before having it illegally shoved down our throats (it never made it past congress, but here we are with it anyways), there was no income tax paid on wages earned.

Now, most tax money goes to paying off the national debt, medical BS and defense.

So, instead of having the government print up money like they used to, they now have big central banks print it for them, with interest thrown in, of course.

Flame away.

I think the FDA should rule..

sorry IC..couldn't resist.

Unfortunately, nothing on a grand scale will ever happen..at least in our lifetime... so you can try affect the next 30 years or you can try and overthrow the Fed.
