....If not bundled with a proposal to cut spending?
I mean, you guys wouldn't support repealing the income tax, would you?
That would be grossly irresponsible. Right?
Income tax is theft.
I dunno, it might upset some people.

Not cutting spending to go along with it would mean more government borrowing or raising some other form of taxes. Ron Paul says you have to take care of spending first.

We have to cut spending. You can’t get rid of the income tax if you don’t get rid of some spending.

But like in the video I posted in the other thread on the topic, Ron Paul would still vote for the tax cuts.
I guess if you just read headlines rather than listening to the content, you would never know that..
Summary: Ron Paul says Trump's tax plan won't work without spending cuts (but he would still vote for it)

There is no spoon.
Just enforce it properly as most Americans are not subject to it.

The Income Tax Is An Excise, And Excise Taxes Are Privilege Taxes
The Federalist Papers, No. 15:
Except as to the rule of appointment, the United States have an indefinite discretion to make requisitions for men and money; but they have no authority to raise either by regulations extending to the individual citizens of America.
Obliterate the income tax and they will replace it with fifteen new taxes that are going to come from our pocket and still spend more.
Technically it's the spending that builds the roads, not any taxes
As long as the government keeps building roads, military, health departments, NSA's, etc
then im totally cool with it

Would i vote for it ? Yes .
Do something Danke
ALL taxation is theft.
Would do it in a heartbeat.
Government assenholes already spend way beyond their means anyways, what's another couple of trillion a year?
$#@! it all, burn it down.
Yes.
I don't care how much they borrow, as long as they (the government) are responsible for paying it back. Maybe they will go bankrupt and go out of business.
Leave those who don't want to support government alone.
So where will the government get money to pay it back? From taxes. More borrowing means higher interest payments which means higher taxes will be necessary in the future but don't worry- it won't be your problem. You will still get everything for free for now.
And if the government does default, it will cause interest rates to soar meaning higher costs (hidden taxes) for you when they do. Either way, there is no "free ride".

So practically everyone here gave an answer to the values-laden OP question Would Repealing the Income Tax Really Be a Good Thing? You however, (and per usual), gave your patented non-answer by simply attempting to point out the consequences of liberty and such issues. Do you have any other templates that you use here?
Also, do you ever actually discuss what you believe? Pretty easy to be a naysayer and a contrarian.

They raise the costs of things and slow economies. Actually a default would probably crash the economy- not just slow it. Or you could do that with taxes if that is what you like.

Is somebody looking for government to give them a ride?
If they can't get by without robbing people, let them go down.
So the dollar become useless and states, free market and/or entrepreneurs come up with alternatives, win win.

That's what happens when "The Dollar" becomes a paper token. As Ron Paul has said over and over again, fiat currencies, backed by nothing, become worthless over time and always fail.
How successful have gold backed currencies been? How many survive today?
They would probably do pretty well if government wouldn't intervene. It's government fiat and greed that causes gold and silver to stop being used as money.
Ask Moammar Gadhafi.

Libyan money isn't backed by gold.
