Mike Carey on Budget & Economy

	Mike Carey on Budget & Economy

Cut spending; simplify and cut taxes

Q: Is redistribution of income needed to lessen the gap between the wealthy and working classes?

A: Strongly Disagree.

Q: Should the government cut spending in order to reduce the national debt?

A: Strongly Agree.

Q: What changes, if any, should be made to the tax code?

A: The Federal tax code is overly burdensome for most Americans to navigate without the help of accountants or online services. This doesn't need to be the case, and for that reason I support a simplified tax code. I also support making tax cuts from the tax cuts and jobs act permanent as well as rolling back the tax increases of the recent "inflation reduction act."
