My previous comment on coal mining jobs popped up as "Anonymous".  This is the Gallopingcamel with greetings for the faithful here and especially Russell Seitz.

Amazing what happens when regulations and taxes are slashed.  Now we need to see huge reductions in government spending.  At the very least close the Department of Education and the EPA.  Authority over these activities belongs to the states or to the people..........not the federal government. 

The IRS is part of the Treasury so it is a legitimate federal function under the constitution.   However given the simplification of the tax code it must be downsized by at least 50%.  Sell your H&R Block shares.  We can retrain all those accountants to create wealth rather than re-distribute it.  There should be plenty of manufacturing or mining jobs opening up.
