Garage sales are going to be the next bubble. Unregulated capitalism will always thrive, whether it's done publicly or in some backalley. The demand for blue jeans soared during the height of the Soviet Union and its satellite territories, and no amount of government stopped them from making their way there.
A VAT is not a bad idea because about 1/2 of the people in this country pay ZERO federal income tax and a VAT would at least insure everybody pays a small amount at least. But first we need to make the rich pay their fair amount and quit letting Goldman Sachs, AIG and Bank of America rob the treasury blind.
A VAT would be OK if an equivalent tax was stricken, like the income and corporate taxes.
But we all know the dems; this tax will come IN ADDITION to the existing large tax burden.
Another great way to manage capitalism into the ground, then blame it for peoples' suffering and offer more regulation and control to "cure" its ailment, and anyone opposed to it can be ridiculed and laughed at by a populist mob of "tolerant" progressives. The concept of capitalism, if manifested into a human, would be the grandest cuckold of them all.
Last I checked the Judicial branch is responsible for law enforcement.
Nope.
The way the branches are designed
Legislative writes the laws
Judicial interprets the laws, and determines if they are constitutional.
Executive executes the laws.
Thats the federal system.
The Judicial system that you are speaking of, is local, and a totally different system, and usually involved in the states form of constitution, not the federal.
