    So he’d make the USA into a non-functional country? Sounds about right.

      It’s right on-brand for the Republican platform.

      I mean that’s been their goal for decades. You see it plainly in their attempts on the Post Office and Social Security. They want to privatize everything. Strip the government for parts and sell it all to private corporations. No Department of Energy? Guess we’ll have to just let the power companies manage our grid with no oversight. No Department of Education? Guess your only options for education are for profit private schools if you can afford to attend them. No IRS to collect those pesky and complicated income taxes? Guess we’ll have to switch to collecting everything via sales tax. Oh what’s that? Not enough money? Good thing we have this Social Security trust fund that’s just been sitting here not being used for Wall St speculationcollecting dust.
