All three hours or whatever it was.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Just a ton of time talking about things I don&#8217;t at all about.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The bits about replacing the individual income tax with tariffs is interesting to say the least.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>What will happen with the &#8220;payroll taxes?&#8221;  Many, many, many, many politicians roll out things about &#8220;the rich not paying their fair share,&#8221; there are already many people who pay no income tax.
