Mr Quinn, I dislike some of what you write, but I always read you. And always find things we agree on in there. In this case, all of what you have written.
" Humana has built its business around the complexity of government healthcare reimbursement, " ----https://www.capitalflowsresearch.com/p/kevin-warsh-will-engineer-the-feds?_sc=OTQzMjQwNSMxNTgxMTk%3D
That is me. I own a small amount of (actual) gold to get me through some VERY tough times that we cannot foresee. And, it is better to not collect on it and to pass it on to my kids.
VATs? That could work, but would be a vastly greater burden on the poorer of us than on the wealthiest. I'm for graduated taxes (greater percentage of the tax burden is paid by the wealthiest), so I like the idea of property tax, even graduated property tax. Anything you come up with will have logical reasons for and against, will have constituencies for and against. We don't have to re-invent the wheel here; we can see how things are done in other societies and learn from their successes and mistakes.

I upvoted your comments primarily because of your attention to the nature of this site and what Jonathan wanted. Thanks for bringing that up.

a bit harsh for this group, Regan. I come here for new facts and ideas and financial education, and rational debate if it happens.

I wish they would make this more challenging so I would have something to do all winter instead of drinking hot chocolate...
