We have already done that kind of stupidity by locking down and firing millions for refusing the toxxine.
The economy would be far stronger in the long run if we fire half of government and those people all have to do something useful instead of get fat collecting taxes from the rest of us.
The taxes to support all that dead weight are also a massive drag on the country.
Never heard of him before, but I can't help but approve of this:
If there is a reason not to trust him, I think it's that he has his undergraduate degree from Harvard and a law degree from Yale Law School.

Sure and then you're cutting tax revenue from millions of W-2 employees that worked for the government. Very few of those cuts are going to get good paying jobs in the private sector to make up what they were paying the IRS. And yes I get many are do nothing jobs.
That would be like the green energy people saying when I get in office 50% of our energy will be renewable in 2 years. It's simply not possible. Even the "mandates" in CA for electric cars, isn't it like 20 (some text omitted to shorten quote...) now the numbers but say 10M people lose their jobs. Most of those jobs actually pay taxes because they're making $40k plus. GDP and tax revenue would be done. Then the domino effect hits and thousands of industries and millions more lose their jobs.
Fact is even if he changes his tune, he literally lost probably 10-20M voters before any primary and is not a viable candidate with the 50% thing. Not that "my" guy has to win, but that's not a winning pony in a general election.
Sorry Wookie but you’re wrong. These Federal employees are a huge drag on the economy. Besides producing nothing of value and being financed by our tax dollars, they also are generally involved in activities that place hurdles in front of people actually trying to be productive.
Trump did the same thing with respect to the swamp. He failed to drain it.
So take 500k federal employees paying say $10k/yr in federal taxes. Erase that. What jobs are they going to get? If they're do nothing jobs what intelligent private employer would hire them? Cutting 50% isn't as easy as you think without causing a massive depression. Not recession.

He at least showed how fucking deep it is.
Couldn't be a better or easier time to cut the fedgov at least 10-20%
You would save $100k in payouts to make up for each $10k in "lost revenue."
I'm just talking federal taxes. Sales taxes. State income taxes. Investments. It's a domino effect. You go out to eat less. Don't travel. Stay at hotels. Guess what, they lose 10-20% of their work force that then spends less. You have to cut government slowly. I get it's wasteful, but you'll cause a depression cutting it 50%. It's a retarded claim.
It'll have wonderful effects through the system, like McMansions will go unsold and future building will be more modest.
When we correct, it's going to be Weimar.
In 2011, Ramaswamy was the beneficiary of the Soros Fellowship, which was used help cover the costs at Yale for a future law degree.
His connection to anything Soros related raises serious red flags, especially with Ramaswamy never bringing up that connection. ...
When we correct,
VIVIK RAMASWAMY: ‘Most Republicans favor reform. I favor revolution. Any politician who says they’re going to “fix” the deep state is delusional. The only solution is to shut it down. We require a President who knows exactly how to do it on strong legal & authority. I will lay out detailed shutdown plans for the FBI, Department of Education, and the Nuclear Regulatory Commission.’
The chickens care coming home to roost. And great will be the fall of this Republic.

The Republic is already dead. We need to restore it.
Apparently you cannot appeal to reason, morality, or anything. People need to suffer to get off their asses. The MIC has bankrupted this nation in collusion with the banking system.
Iowa isn't exactly the Rap Capital of the World, but apparently Ramaswamy thinks it is. I hate this kind of mindless pandering from politicians. The more I see, the more Ramaswamy reminds me of Beto O'Rourke.

But he actually did a decent job. Why not? Better than yurtle the turtle freezing out on the mic while leading the US into uniparty disaster
The problem is that less and less people believe in it every day, and more and more people want to tear down the Constitutional framework. So we are headed towards destruction unless these tides can be turned.
So far with everything he has said I like Vivek. He got into politics after having to deal with woke shit running his company. His only challenge will be getting people to look past his name and that his parents are from India.

If he's all in on harsh prosecutions for everyone involved in creating the virus and mandating the toxxine, then I'd be all in on him.
