Best way to get spending under control, IMO, is to lock down the amount of money flowing IN to the system, however. That's why rational tax reform is needed. Counting income from stocks as regular income is one step in the right direction. The source of the income should not matter in tax calculations.

I also don't believe that both a) corporations should be taxed and b) corporations should have any rights of citizenship.
