Cut tax rates.
Hint to the economic illiterates among you. We do not live in a zero-sum society. Tax rates and tax revenues are TWO DIFFERENT THINGS.
High tax rates dampen revenues as the rich and middle class cut down on economic activity or use tax shelters.
Low tax rates catalyze added revenues as the rich and middle class engage in more economic activity and cease bothering with tax shelters.
Will the Democrats explain this all to you? NO! They want control over you.
But I explained it for you. You can thank me by supporting candidates who know the economic facts of life and ACT UPON their knowledge.

Repeal the 16th amendment, go to a sales tax and let the riot begin.
When your average person has to pay $6 in national sales tax for a Big Mac, they will immediately run to DC and throttle
someone in Congress.
AMericans have no idea what they pay, they talk about how much money they get back, but don't know how much they pay.
The sales tax would be fair to all income levels and would reward those that save instead of spending every dime they make. There would be no way for congress to reward their big money supporters, there would be no deductions. You spend a dollar, you pay your percentage, you pay a million dollars you pay your percentage.
The key benefit, every AMerican would know what congress is doing to their country.

Tax the hell out of churches (because they participate in politics even though there is a separation between church and state) in our government - AND - force the wealthy to carry their fair load of the taxes which they have not for decades. Also, forbid the states from double taxing citizens by taxing property, business and forcing a sales tax on its citizens. Then the feds must do what they used to do, and that is pay for all social programs and schools and not force that burden on the states.

Cut spending on such things as giving money away to other countries, putting millions into a 4 wheeler on Mars, rebuilding our enemies countries after our Allies blow it up, tax cuts to Big Oil and other huge companies. If we get rid of all the waste, taxes can be lowered.

REDUCE SPENDING !!!
High taxes result from a spending sprees by political parties that have complete control. With no checks or balances to stop the spending, the PORK has flowed high and hard for the last 6 years.

Make it a true democracy, see how long people keep funding fruit fly research and all the other crap that gets signed off on, when it is my money and I have the power to spend it how I want, I will bet you taxes wouldn't be wasted on such tripe!
Make paying taxes like investing in mututal funds, you would have a local line, county, state, and federal, you would allot a % of your taxes as YOU saw fit, down those lines.

The Fair Tax and cleaning up the pork both on the state and federal levels. We need to begin demanding accountability on both fronts to see where our money is going.
