Cut the Fed technocracy, to unshackle the economy
We have to put the Federal Reserve back in its place. This is an agency that has gone rogue. So in January 2026 when I have the opportunity, we will have a new chairman of the Federal Reserve who placed his priority on dollar
stability and then, most importantly, send packing 75% of the administrative state, reduce the federal employee headcount by 75%, rescind 50% of unconstitutional federal regulations that are shackling businesses, both large and small.
I've offered a very clear practical plan to do it. That's how we unleash the economy, that's how we revive the integrity of a three-branch
Constitutional Republic rather than this technocracy and aristocracy.

I ran companies in China but now declare independence
Q: People say you ran businesses in China...RAMASWAMY: We got the hell out of there. And when I started my next company, Strive, to compete against BlackRock [a foreign-owned company operating in China],
I made a commitment that we would never do business in China. We need to declare independence from China, and I will say that through.

Start government with zero-based budgeting, like businesses
We need a zero-based budgeting. That's the way businesses are actually run. Start with zero as the baseline for the budget and then see what's actually necessary.
There isn't a blue state or a red state in this union that does it. The federal government doesn't do it. But successful companies, including the ones that I've built as a CEO [do zero-based budgeting].
