Yeah, you're right. The USA right now is in a good state on the matter of social policy, and I don't see any way it could be improved.

Especially if it takes taxing the "rich" more. Imagine the chaos that would ensue...

In fact, I'd go as far as to say that the current problem in the USA is that market is not free enough. Trump should definitely lower taxes on higher incomes and cut services. This can only push innovation! Think about how quick this whole "crisis" would be solved if it weren't for government intervention!

That would certainly make for a better society!

youre really showing your true stripes here.

>Especially if it takes taxing the "rich" more.

im not sure why you put rich in quotes since that's not what I said. however, the majority of tax revenue already comes from businesses and high-income tax brackets. what do you think is a "fair" share, since theyre already footing the bill?

> Imagine the chaos that would ensue...

youre being sarcastic, but im not sure why. American capitalism has helped catapult the world into a standard of living previously unimagined. most socialist experiments have ended with millions of dead, and the current socialist successes are either brutally authoritarian and/or 1/100 the size of USA.

> This can only push innovation!

if you want to stop using technology that was gained in some part by the "needless" (whatever that means) suffering of others, then good luck; you've got quite the task ahead of you.

> That would certainly make for a better society!

im making good-faith arguments including first-principles. you respond with false dichotomys, straw men, putting words in my mouth, sarcasm, and generally being a piece of shit.
