I am passionate about the individual. In our 250th year as a nation, it is important to remember that one of our founding ideals is the pursuit of happiness. To pursue happiness, we need to reduce taxes so that people can keep more of their money and reduce spending so that the money they keep is worth more.
Slashing federal spending and ending corporate welfare are my top priorities. Congress must make sweeping, structural cuts across all federal agencies. We must refuse to raise the debt ceiling without fiscal reforms and defund global resource deployments. Either we get ahold of our debt or our debt is going to get ahold of us.
