Common Sense For America
ABOUT COMMON SENSE FOR AMERICA:
Common Sense For America (CSFA) unites history and facts to inspire non-partisan, common-sense solutions to America’s biggest challenges.
Founded on the principles of Common Sense (Thomas Paine, 1776) and a deep appreciation for history, Bruce Rutherford—political commentator and educator—analyzes U.S. history, national budgets, and global affairs, breaking them down into clear, transparent insights for everyday Americans. Paine’s Common Sense argued that concentrated political power—whether in a monarchy or an elite ruling class—undermines democracy. In that spirit, CSFA champions government accountability, transparency, and true representation of the people.

Common Sense For America
Taxes and the American Economy Part 2
"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.
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. 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.
