RE: Trump flirts with no income taxes - New York Times - jaded - 10-25-2024

Watched a short podcast where Trump's private philanthropy got 'outted". Turns out he privately is quite generous to regular employees, not the suits, and his suppliers employees when things have cropped up. 

Anyhoos
The interviewer asked him if he'd ever considered not taxing military paychecks? That the ones doing the actual fighting should just be able to keep the pay they were earning. Trump was honestly surprised. No one, NONE had ever asked him this. You could actually see his mind working as he instantly knew this interviewer had pointed out a knowledge gap in his advisors/team while he was also running numbers in his head. 

I can only guess how uncomfortable his next staff meeting was going to be. It was the very first time I'd seen Trump being himself as he was just working. I've had bad bosses & good bosses an Trump defaulted right into "good working boss mode" instantly. Never saw that coming!!
The podcast was "something or other" with Tyrus some prize fighter?

I'd like to see a good study done on this.

We could save a fortune with the IRS shutting down and everyone would be glad that the headache of annual federal tax returns is gone.  It is too complicated even for the average person to be filling out.

The study is already done. This is how it used to be here in the USA. Trump talks about it here at 10:18

Trump on JRE last night:
Quote:Rogan- “Did you just float out the idea of getting rid of income taxes and replacing them with tariffs? Were you serious about that?”

Trump- “Yea, sure.”
