“Australia is world best practice on infrastructure”. I would never want to experience the second best, then! And Trump can certainly teach Australia a thing or two, starting with unemployment, jobs etc.

dirtydeputies.org: oils ain't oils, no there also Koch.

But a move away from ME oil dependency for the US, comes at great expense to the environment in the US; shame is.
Will that dynamic leave Israel more isolated, or will it hasten a peaceful settlement between the Arabs and Israel?

Trump called out the Paris fraud for what it was. That puts him miles above the rest of the pack when it comes to energy. We still have economist fraudulent or ignorant enough to tell us wind and solar is good for out economy. Dumb and dumber.

What is Trumponomics?

It is unbelievably successful.

Well, The theory is essentially correct and starts with lower tax and energy. And lower government spending.

#1/ Tax. Lower tax starts by removing all the blood-sucking parasites from it who essentially earn a free-living as consultants, tax lawyers and practitioners. Along with the very complexity that then guarantees their necessary/ essential involvement.

Moreover, their removal would remove tax compliance costs of around 7%.

And done by the simplicity of removing all other taxes and replacing all that costly, regressive money churn, with a single stand-alone unavoidable, entirely free of any allowable deductions or offsets! A PAYE or PAYG 15% flat tax that everyone above a known tax-free threshold pays!

So, you keep tabs on your income from any source and start to pay your 15%. WHICH WITH THE FORMER TAX COMPLIANCE COST RETURNED TO THE BOTTOM LINE, IS AN EFFECTIVE RATE OF JUST 8%! Once you've risen above an agreed threshold.

Random checks on your spending patterns when compared with your bank deposits, ought to generally validate your claimed income.

And when it doesn't, put under a forensic examination which if exposes willfully cheating, could see your personal tax liability doubled for life, with a proven second offence seeing it trebled!

A third strike and its not only quadruple but controlled by a third party.

And if that's not enough to change behaviour? Then Exile! Ecuador perhaps? No, ifs buts or maybes!

Don't want to carry your share of a common burden, even though you can? Okay, hiss off! Your citizenship is cancelled and you're an enemy alien!

One or two glaring examples enough to compel otherwise, unpoliced compliance. And doable in light of the knowledge that the top tax ACTUALLY PAID in 2017, by any corporation, was 13% with one in three paying nothing?

After that, complete regional autonomy coupled with various direct funding, benchmarked, comparative models that eliminate all the middlemen bean counters? Where practicable as means-tested endowments!

Then the citizen directs those funds in whole or part for health or education.

Which is to say that the Americans can put into overdrive the process of trashing the planet.

Re framing and old maxim - they created a biological and cultural desert and called it a cornucopia.

Put in another way too the WETIKO DISEASE is very much "alive" under the trumpenfuhrer.
