Dear Common Sense Patriots,

Welcome to our educational series where we explore how common sense principles strengthen our country. Common Sense is a pamphlet originally written and published by Thomas Paine in 1776. Paine argues for limited government, tax reformation, and self-sufficiency. In this episode, Bruce covers our American Economy. Think about these ideas not as a partisan political person, but as a patriot. I think you will approach many issues that we face today in a new light.

Join our pack of patriots every other Thursday on YouTube and your favorite podcast platforms. You will be sure to engage with thought-provoking content that challenges perspectives and inspires action. History is Our Story — together, we shape the narrative. Email, leave a comment, or send a voice note and share with us YOUR story, questions, and ideas. Don't forget to rate and like to help us reach more Americans.

Warm regards,

Bruce Rutherford

ABOUT COMMON SENSE:
Thomas Paine's Common Sense argues that concentrated political power, whether in a monarchy or elite class, is unjust and undermines democracy. He advocates for a government accountable to the people, emphasizing the need for greater transparency, representation, and checks on executive power. Paine also stresses that citizens have the right and responsibility to challenge unjust government actions, making the case for a more participatory and responsive democratic system.

ABOUT BRUCE:
Bruce Rutherford is a political commentator influenced by the writings of Thomas Paine, Milton and Rose Friedman, and other integral thought-leaders. From riches, to rags, and finally towards self-reliance, Rutherford brings passion and empathy to a bipartisan audience, and encourages an environment where we can discuss the ideas that continue to shape our nation. History is Our Story, and our stories deserve to be told. Bond with Bruce and share YOUR story, questions, and ideas.

"We should eliminate corporate income tax! Think about it. These taxes are passed on the consumer and employees in the form of higher costs and lower wages."

This Part 2 Episode continues on the topic of fair tax reform. Bruce shares his ideas on how every American should have a $50,000 automatic tax deduction. Simultaneously, we are strengthening our tax system if we follow these steps.

Our tax system is basically and ACCIDENT and is holding us back!
It's time for a Tax Reform. I say, scrap the current tax system. The first $50,000 of income should be TAX-FREE. This episode tells us how.
