  • Term limits
  • Restrict and enforce any contributions to politicians and governmental persons

Right on dot-guy. Taxes are a necessary evil, it's the equitable collection that's the problem. No way someone of Trump's supposed wealth should only pay the paltry amounts of income tax he paid. Legal, maybe, unless income and dedications were misstated....but that couldn't happen, could it? There was a reason he wouldn't disclose his tax returns while claiming to have paid plenty and we now know that reason. Reform won't happen as long as fat asses pull the strings.

I understand taking any tax breaks that you can but you don't have to be a dick about it. You should at least feel a little guilty.

That sounds like plenty of time on the court to me. https://www.brennancenter.org/our-wo...rt-term-limits

I would have no issue with that. Cycle them down to the circuit court of their choice. Give them Judge Emeritus status. Hopefully, most will just opt to retire.

Nope, absolute disaster, as it turns the Supreme Court into a political branch which defeats part of the checks and balance the U.S. Constitution set up.
No it doesn't. At least not anymore so than it already is.
