So all that "unregulated capitalism" in socialist/communist countries is what caused the average salary for USSR citizens to be $1,234.00...for those in the poverty stricken unregulated capitalist system of the US, the average was $77,567.00

Absolutely right! We would probably need some kind of phase-out of no longer needed government types, such as IRS agents, and tax lawyers, in order to limit the more immediate effects on the economy. I recommend that anyone whose job is lost due to the proposed flat tax system be paid by the government at a rate of 20% cut in pay per year, until he chooses to find other work. It would take six or seven years, but we would get down to 10% or less, I believe.

A big one is the EPA, which is a duplicate agency, since each state has a state run EPA. Our current EPA keeps getting in trouble for making laws, this organization is huge, powerful, and one of our most corrupt.
A portion of the USGS since in large part universities do majority of the science-based studies.

Sadly our current IRS is primed to become America's version of WWII nazi Germany's SS police

My thoughts exactly!! Biden must be playing the same exact cards that Hitler did. I am reading the book by O'Reilly on Patton. He does a great job depicting this time in our country's history and the similarities are frightening!! I fear for our country!!!

1. Let's expose all Druggies, re: Homeless! [ Identify] ~Se if they can be saved...[ Whose choice?]

2. Deal with those that can be saved...[ who will 'Figger", that one out?] How did they gravitate to the bottom?

3. Life is all about the choices we make! [ Can't get a higher education?]...Seek Government help!

4. Regardless of the mental/physical malady...Seek help...Be strong enough to refuse drugs...

Or sufer the "Consequences"! Bad choices, = bad "Consequences"! *personal responsibility!

No...it is NOT easy...It's a matter of survival, or death! { ~YOUR CHOICE!} , , ,

==================
For more than 200 years, free market capitalism has been the engine of America's prosperity. That is why America was on top of the world, as she takes care of many countries unable to survive at its own. Annually America sends billions of dollars to so many countries to alleviate the sufferings of their people. The Muslim countries despite of their violent ways of living, America sends billions to help them.

US foreign aid spending, current as of February 2022
This is only partial. The major countries, like Egypt, Pakistan is not yet listed here.

In 2022, under Biden, and Barack, the United States budgeted $38 billion for foreign aid spending. As of this reporting, it has disbursed over $32 billion. Almost 25% of that budget has gone to just ten countries:
The 75% went to most major Muslim countries, like Egypt, Pakistan, Iraq, Syria, etc.

Ethiopia ($1.13 billion)
Jordan ($1.03 billion)
Afghanistan ($860 million)
South Sudan ($821 million)
Congo ($814 million)
Yemen ($814 million)
Nigeria ($803 million)
Syria ($774 million)
Sudan ($488 million)
Somalia ($475 million)

While millions of Americans are homeless, Joe Biden feeds and shelters the Muslims countries, as he claims, "pay your fair share"!

While he and Hunter exempts themselves from paying millions of dollars of taxes on those influence peddling schemes. RE: Records are now in Congress!

Biden sends $250 million annually to Palestine.

What a great endorsement!

Agreed, with some exceptions. My wife having 3 masters in psychology leaks out reality and provokes thought.
Many in our society have borderline personality disorders, functioning in society marginally. Some respected husbands/wives/fathers/mothers and so on. When faced with some of life's greater troubles, their ability to cope is so greatly diminished, they actually become physically ill.
We tend to look at these , as weak minded or unable to deal with life's adversities.
Considering the adversities I have overcome and the resiliency developed over time, it is difficult to understand how such minor or lessor adversity can be devastating to so many. Toss in an invisible (to the public) mental illness and the dynamics change.
Is it upbringing, my opinion yes, but thar upbringing falls on the parents.
My generation began with adversity, called a spanking, strict guildlines and rules, with punishment to fit stepping out of those guidelines. Playing had risk since it meant obstacles outside, often ending with some level of injury. If our feelings were hurt by school mates, move on, get over it. We were taught morality, ethics and actions have consequences.
Oh how things have changed with those following in our footsteps, thus the mentally borderline personality disorders (snowflakes) unable to handle life's adversities, function under extreme duress, stemming from no moral compass, ethics thar only depend if in their best interest, emotionally void, incapable of dealing with offense (hurt feelings) and critical thinking skills replaced with decisions based on emotions.
Dr Spock helped transform America into what we see on the left. Mental illness widespread
