When the IRS is garnishing 20%+ of my paychecks and the value returned to the taxpayer is abysmal as it is, I'm 100% for this.
If federal taxes came down to earth to something reasonable like 2%-3%, I would be thinking much differently.

Aside from the social security and medicare, and the interstate highways and infrastructure, and the space exploration, and the internet and research funding, and the public health and safety, and the national defense and diplomacy, and the environmental protection, and the national parks, and the civil rights protections and democratic institutions, what has the federal government done for us?
