    Aside from keeping on with the status quo, wouldn't anything?

    And it's not like keeping on keeping on won't have consequences. They're just known consequences.

    Well, I think more importantly, it reveals another major flaw in our tax system. I'm all for fair and equal taxation but when you are now allocating funds to chase down dollars that are going off shore, maybe you need to take an introspective look at how you're approaching taxation.

    I don't think it is a falsity to claim it isn't working.

    There is value in revisiting old ideas. You can challenge them with new knowledge.

    Oh look, a bill that will fall flat on its face but Paul will be able to run around and claim that he tried and that the government is covering something up to appease all the little libertarian whackos who think the Fed is some grand conspiracy.

    I am not a fan of Paul but I 100% support this, it's a long overdue. Oversight, oversight, oversight, I can't support that enough, every responsible person has a budget, and the key to any budget is to always itemize and go over spending.

    This was back in 2013. And I think Bernie Sanders was the only one that signed off on it.

    Every government institution should be held to a yearly or bi-yearly audit. This is how you hold every office accountable, the same with busting up big sectors of business also. Bring that back while you are at it.
