This would be a kick in the head: Take all the things the federal government doles out money to. Divide it between those things that are Constitutionally authorized and those that aren't (UN Payments, Ukraine, etc.). Set up a consumption tax that will cover the Constitutionally authorized expenditures then ask for voluntary contributions for those that aren't, line by line. If it doesn't get funded voluntarily, it goes away.....
I like all of this. However, the CIA would assassinate whoever they needed to before they let this happen. Need to find a way to get rid of guys like that before defunding.
