I want a low flat tax with no loop holes that everyone has to pay no matter how rich or poor. And I don't want bloated government or "stimulus" bull crap. The government should be as small as possible and stay out of our lives. All we need government for is law and order, defense, and public safety.

We don't need half of the government agencies we have. We need to stop spending tax payer's money on art grants and scholarships. We also don't need to keep taking care of 3rd and 4th generation welfare slackers. If you can't find a job and you're not disabled then I say we put you to work doing the same stuff inmates do in work release. No free handouts. I'm also tired of my tax dollars going to parents that can't take care of their kids and keep having more kids just to get more money. If you can't take care of your kids, guess what, they go to foster care until you can. The US government really needs to stop paying farmers NOT to grow certain crops and pays them to grow others.

For some reason the US government thinks you just throw money are problems instead of letting the free market fix itself for free. And now congress thinks it knows better then I do how to spend my money.

Foster care is state-run too. If we want to be so cruel about it, the only way to efficiently stop welfare babies is with mandatory abortions. Since no-one is willing to do that, welfare benefits for children is the most humane way to do it
