No taxes, only tariffs. Which were paid for by the dirt poor "everyone else" who weren't the wealthy robber barons. The wealth robber barons ran the country, industry, everything -- and everyone else was dirt poor and worked 7 days/week (no labor laws and no "social safety net&quot - everyone else had no life and no wealth - just slavery to support the robber barons.

That's why he loves that age. He wants to return us to THAT.
