Presidential Debate hosted by ABC News, Philadelphia PA: on Corporations


Kamala Harris: Help small businesses, not $5T to big corporations

Q: Do you believe Americans are better off than they were 4 years ago?

HARRIS: My passion is small businesses. My mother raised my sister and me but there was a woman who helped raise us. We call her our second mother. She was a small business owner. I love our small businesses. My plan is to give a $50,000 tax deduction to start-up small businesses, knowing they are part of the backbone of America's economy. My opponent, on the other hand, his plan is to do what he has done before, which is to provide a tax cut for billionaires and big corporations, which will result in $5 trillion to America's deficit.

Q: But are Americans better off than they were 4 years ago?

HARRIS: Let's talk about what Donald Trump left us. Donald Trump left us the worst unemployment since the Great Depression. Donald Trump left us the worst public health epidemic in a century. Donald Trump left us the worst attack on our democracy since the Civil War. And what we have done is clean up Donald Trump's mess.
