“Fedgov would simply rack up the debt again”
I agree. Because in theory the land “belongs” in trust to the taxpayers, although some would argue that it belongs to the citizens. Of course I disagree with the citizens having any rights unless they are paying taxes. Non taxpayers shouldn’t even be allowed to vote as far as I’m concerned. Neither should welfare recipients. But hey, I’m just shootin’ my mouth off as usual...
No, you’re not just shootin’ your mouth off, IMHO...I’ve advocated exactly that for years...And include honorable military service as an additional qualifier...
No “skin in the game”? Then you get no say in who/how it’s run...
