It is important for us to lower government expenses so we can keep the burden of taxation low. People already pay their fair share; for the more we make, the more we pay, even if the rate is the same across the board. When taxes are low, businesses are able to hire more employees and offer higher wages. This helps everyone in our economy.
One idea I would like to implement is to require companies with 1099 employees to deduct taxes for those employees, such as Uber and Lyft drivers, in order to prevent large tax bills on people who may not know to save a percentage of their income for taxes.
When it comes to retirement, I am open to private programs, but we must ensure that social security, Medicare, and Medicaid are fully funded, for many people rely on these programs.
