Question for the group.
Working backwards, what percent of GDP do you think should be taxed by the local+state+federal government? Relatedly, what % of GDP should be spent by the government each year?
Right now the US spends 36% and taxes 32%. That.. seems pretty reasonable to me? Maybe a little high tbh. I definitely don't think the government should be spending more than 50%.
I'm curious what other folks think. Working backwards, what should total spending/taxes look like? Then how do you get there?
