We currently collect about $2.4 trillion a year in income taxes. We collect about 285 billion in tariffs. Your math just doesn’t work. Cutting everything else would eliminate vital service such as the VA, FBI, air traffic control, and a whole host of other services. We would experience a depression far greater than the 1930s. If we doubled tariffs we would choke off all imports and that would reduce tariff income, not increase it.
The PILF audit was flawed. It matched names against the SS death index (SSDI) that has proven to be a flawed method. Public versions of the SSDI have been restricted since 2014, so independent researchers often work with incomplete or older snapshots, which compounds matching errors.
This is why election officials typically don’t cancel a registration on a single name match; they cross-reference with state vital records, DMV data, and sometimes county-level death certificates before removing someone.
Everything you posted is completely false. You just want to believe it’s true because you have an agenda. The VoteCal database is checked daily against DMV and Social Security rolls to remove people who have either died or have moved. Every returned ballot is matched against a signature on file, and if they don’t match, the ballot is not opened and the voter is notified of the discrepancy. There are many safeguards in place to ensure only legally registered voters vote.
America was not built on Christianity. The Senate passed it unanimously, and President Adams signed the Treaty of Tripoli, which specifically states:
"As the government of the United States of America is not in any sense founded on the Christian Religion — as it has in itself no character of enmity against the laws, religion or tranquility of Musselmen — and as the said States never have entered into any war or act of hostility against any Mehomitan nation, it is declared by the parties that no pretext arising from religious opinions shall ever produce an interruption of the harmony existing between the two countries."
@RepFine But it was OK for the GOP to do the same thing in Texas and other states. Sorry, but you can't expect the Democrats to roll over and play dead on this issue.
There are no guardrails for the use or abuse of this data. There used to be a 90-day lockout on purging voter data before an election. This bill will change it to every 30 days, with no notification to a voter that they have been purged. Trump wouldn't be pushing this hard for SAVE just over voter ID. He has something else in mind.
@YourAnonNews No, they're not. Neither are running yet, and there's no way the dems will win with Buttigieg on the ticket. As much as I like him, America isn't ready for a gay VP.
That is for federal offices only. Purging voter rolls would impact state and local elections since states don’t maintain two separate lists of eligible voters. States have one set of voter rolls. The Save Act requires them to be compared to the federal SAVE database, and states must purge those voters who don’t appear on the list. The Save database has shown high error rates, particularly for naturalized citizens.
