Malcolm, Lt AWOL's tax cuts haven't resulted in "the rich" having low taxation. What has happened is that the rich are not paying such an extorquerationately excessive share of taxation, though still excessive. A flat tax on all would be fair. That would result in the rich paying a LOT of tax and the poor paying a small amount. Since the rich have more to defend, that makes sense.

Social Security benefits go mostly to Democrat voters, so Lt. AWOL doesn't have incentive to maintain those at a high level.

Letting the dollar drop makes sense if there's no inflation, interest rates are low and all is looking okay, but exports need a turbo-charge. A lower dollar is a pay cut across the board for Americans.

You are right that Alan Green$pan is amazing. Almost supernatural. He is right that the USA government is spending too much money.
