upvote! MMT founders think we can eliminate income taxes and get by with state taxes. One has said a national real estate tax would be fair in leu of income taxes. But they all agree taxing is necessary to maitain demand/need for the currency and to slow down the economy if needed.

Many non MMTers think we can get rid of income tax too.

but those others believe taxes fund federal government which MMT has shown to be not exactly true.
