Trump is still signaling that he wants to replace income tax with tariffs.

what are the odds this actually happens?

would it be a good thing? a bad thing? something in between?
The Federal Government is never going to voluntarily give up such a lucrative revenue stream. Trump would have to spend all of his dwindling political capital just to get Income tax lowered to a reasonable degree, let alone banned.
That would be exactly what I want. That would be closer to how our government originally funded itself in the first place.
