I agree with sales tax being probably the fairest way to go, but what about also replacing or reducing property tax? I get that it funds schools and fire departments and all, but it just doesn’t seem right to have to keep paying out the arse year after year for a property you paid off years ago. I think several things should be changed.

I'm fine with property tax because it still pays for those programs and utilities that you and every one else uses. The other option is those things get privatized and that very clearly did NOT work. Tried that one already.

I see someone is from Texas or Florida telling us how bad the property tax system is.
Instead of a national sales tax on everything, I am for eliminating income taxes and imposing greater tariffs on imports. The tax would have 2 advantages. It would put US manufacturers in a better position to compete making their goods cost less, so companies would be compelled to locate their factories here. The other advantage is that it would be very easy to collect. 30% on the declared sales value of the goods.
