If I had my way, government would be funded in a simular manner since congress has proven to be incapable of managing money.
10% flat tax with the taxpayer writing a check to the agency/dept's that he she wants to fund. The taxpayer can spread the money around but the total must equal 10% or more(the "more" is voluntary) of income. So, if I owe $1,000 I can send $100 to ICE, $500 to DOD, $200 to VA, $200 to hiway dept and ZERO to FDA, FBI, DEA, and etc.
hahahahahahahahaha.....voluntary...your killing me here....the IRS isn't even part of our goverment and they wield more power to destroy someone's life than any law enforcment agency in the country......we have been pulled so far away from the founding vision of our goverment, that I'm not sure if it's restorable...the people look to the state as the supreme being
If you'd said, "the Federal Reserve" you'd be mostly correct.
But the IRS is a bureau of the Department of Treasury, and most certainly is a government agency.
Netanyahu Dissolves Israeli Parliament, Calls For New Elections In Risky Political Gambit
Netanyahu is hoping to expand his coalition's razor-thin one-vote majority in the legislative body to help pass a controversial bill to expand conscription requirements for ultra-orthodox Jews.

Spitzer Repeatedly Snuck $5,000/Night Prostitute Into His Apartment Using A Suitcase
"He used to sneak me into his Fifth Avenue apartment in a black suitcase . . . when his wife was away. My knees would be up by my face. When the doorman would ask if he could help, Eliot would say, ‘No, thanks.’ "

I'm not sure how you come to that conclusion. All those transactions are made by private citizens.
You greatly overestimate the market participation & frequency of private citizens tranactions. As for those private citizens, I'm sure they would gladly pay 1/2% up front on a trade than 10% after the fact.
Meanwhile, The high frequency trading employed by the banking elite, brokerage houses & multinational corporations to manipulate the financial markets would be greatly curtailed if they were forced to pay for the privilege.
Um, any transaction that is not a government transaction is a private citizen transaction. Are you saying that the majority of transactions are government transaction?
People are weird so there is no telling what they'd want. But I think most would find out fast enough that when they lose money on a transaction paying a tax on top of the loss isn't ideal. You only pay 10% if you gain on a transaction.
You only lose when you sell(transaction). So if you have to sell in a down market not only would you lose money, now you want them to pay a tax to lose money. Doesn't really make sense when you think about it.
Or at least entities owned by private citizens.
No, they'd just pass the cost of the tax on to the consumer by increased price. They don't pay the tax, you do. And all those are owned by private citizens.
The problem with "High Frequency Trading" isn't the trades that actually execute, and thus would be taxed, but rather the fake bids and offers that are put out there and then retracted milliseconds later. These never execute (so they wouldn't be taxed) but they do apply pressure to ("manipulate") the markets in whatever direction the entities who put them out there desire.
The fix for the market-manipulation via high-frequency trading lies not in taxation (taxation is theft!) but rather having the markets impose one simple rule: If you put a bid or an offer on the market, you can't retract it in less than two (and preferably 10 or even 15) seconds. This would allow an actual human trader to respond to it.

US Regulators Told Mnuchin "Nothing Out Of The Ordinary" In Markets

See I was under the impression they were actually completing the sales from one shell company to another that are merely entities owned or controlled by the same parent company to manipulate the price. By completing multiple small sales from one subsidiary to another they are able to move the prices enough to make it profitable to complete relatively few large scale outside trades that are extremely profitable thereby covering the expense of the large number of small unprofitable trades between subsidiaries necessary to make that happen.
My point is the majority of private citizens aren't the ones employing these tactics. Large Brokerage firms are. Paying for the privilege will probably not stop the practice but would raise more than enough revenue to run the government.
