I have heard rumors that Trump is trying to basically disappear the Federal Government except for emergency handling and war fighting capabilities (which is used for peacekeeping).<p>I personally wouldn't mind if the fed gov was just that- handle emergencies (via funds, not an organization that has to learn a state's roads when disaster hits), and a military. Lower federal taxes to just 5% for all sales (no income portion).<p>I feel like after that, create mandates for states to institute new safety net programs based on additional sales taxes (not income). Then distribute the entire SSI program (its existing funds) to the states. If a person moves, the states must have a method of handling that.<p>There is literally no reason for me to care about the US as a government responsible to its citizens to manage and maintain 26k paintins that could be digitized and then physical assets either sold or donated to states to manage. If some state cares enough, it can take care of the paintings.
