What we need is for EVERY citizen to pay a FAIR share of the operating expenses for this great country. Bezos floated a proposal to ease the tax burden on lower-income Americans, suggesting that the bottom half of U.S. income earners—roughly 76 million households—should pay no federal income taxes.

People respect if you get rich by WORKING for it. Being BORN rich? Not so much! Bezos pointed to how someone could start with a simple food stand with 10 or so workers, grow it into a business with thousands of locations and employees, and eventually become a billionaire. "This is how it works,"

It isn't how much you have, its what you DO with it. Some 18% of Americans view being extremely rich as "morally wrong," a figure that nearly doubles to about 33% among Gen Z adults ages 18 to 29, according to a 2025 Pew Research study.

Our trade deficit with a few countries IS a problem but NOT a crisis or national emergency. We should be incubating new investment in home shore manufacturing and selectively using tariffs or sanctions against UNFAIR trade competitors. THIS is business... not war!

One hopes voters have had their fill of hate and partisan division now that Trump is calling for fellow Americans to be killed. The rise of Trumpism and its anything-goes view of ethics proved to be the final nail in the coffin of a party that was already well on its way to moral hollowness.
