The under-tax gnomes [1]

Phase one: Stop all the money leaving the treasury and institute regressive taxes such as tariffs and inflation.
Phase two: Reduce taxes because of the enormous budget surplus!
Phase three: Profit! (for a relative few)
Anything that divides the opposition, increases power, and distracts from the objectives is done.
The part of the American dream that involves class mobility needs to go away in order to reduce the possibility that a member of the opposition may rise to power.
It doesn’t matter if there are failures or setbacks, the cycle can be repeated ad infinitum. It’s not a popularity contest for the lame duck unitary executive and those waiting in the wings for him to eventually be replaced. It doesn’t matter that the economy goes into the toilet either as long as we got ours.
Are there enough complicit judges and other people willing to violate their oaths for this plan to succeed? What happens if the populace stops feeling overwhelmed and powerless? There are some concerns, but evidently it’s time to find out before all the over-leveraged players’ bills and prison time comes due.
