There are real monetary benefits to his plan, no?
Here's one: we all will get what we pay for as opposed to our tax $$$ going to bail out banking douchebags.
Another: if my taxes double will it really affect my bottom line at all since there won't be any out-of-pocket expense for healthcare? Hell we pay $14K a year now for fam of 3 and can't afford care with a $6K out-of-pocket. Next year I can't insure myself anymore so it'll just be the kids. That's not including separate dental. So fuggit yeah raise my taxes and give me some healthcare stability.
Another: and if kids get free college won't that help our society as opposed to maybe building more prisons or expanding welfare because we can't compete globally? Yeah we want an educated populace.
Another: cut corporate welfare and subsidies.
Yeah I'm good with getting taxed when my tax $ aren't supporting a corrupt fucked up political giveaway to the those who need it the least
