OK then. First of all, congrats on your success. Why don't you start the ball rolling by turning over 90% of your income to the government? How many poor people could you have fed instead of giving yourself a rather decadent bathroom and kitchen? I only ask because you seem to feel that other Americans should do so. You should be willing to do no less than you would ask from a fellow American, no?
Line item tax return?
I like that idea. Okay..I will do that..if I can opt out of paying for 11 carrier groups..2 ongoing wars and over 700 bases world wide...600 of which we probably don't need.
Deal?
Sure, why not? Your particular drop in the bucket goes only towards whatever causes triphammers your fuzzy little liberal heart.
It's a nice pipe dream..but it really wouldn't work out so great in practice. California being a fine example of direct Democracy in terms of taxes.
