The military is the largest discretionary expenditure the government has, so that goes first.

They have all the guns, you don't have any or at least enough. So if they come to your door demanding tribute, you'd best empty your pockets.

The military can't extract money from a decimated, broke or sick population and are outnumbered 350 to 1. Demanding tribute isn't gonna work.

Utilities. Look forward to massive water / power price hikes.

Id be surprised if anything stays gone for long.

everything funded by private donations sounds like code speak for every corporatists wet dream. the fed just dissolved and we turn into a neo-feudalist system.

youd have everything you need, but now Jeff Bezos is your king and hes conscripting you for his war against Disney. >_>

Maybe, but those people tend to forget they rely on consumers for America's resources. It'd work for maybe 5 years before they wanted to go back.

Have you been in a coma? There's this thing called corona virus 2019 decimating consumers and small businesses while Jeff Besos gets richer.
