Taxes
"No taxes can be devised which are not more or less inconvenient and unpleasant." George Washington, September 1796
While taxes are necessary to fund such critical priorities as the national defense and other programs, it doesn't change the fact that you've worked hard for your money and should be allowed to decide where that money should be spent. Congress has a responsibility to ensure that we're spending your money wisely and returning it to you when it has taken too much.
Pro-growth conservative policies have driven the American economy over the last several years and have put more money back in the pockets of working families, right where it belongs.
In general, the United States tax code is overly complicated. What we need is a system that the average taxpayer can understand and comply with. We need to ensure that taxes are equitable and don't place an undue burden on individuals or businesses.
To do this, we must control wasteful spending and ensure that federal dollars are being spent in a fiscally responsible manner. While there are any number of worthwhile programs that deserve federal government funding, we don't have unlimited resources. Every dollar that Washington spends is from taxes taken from the American people or borrowed on the backs of our children and grandchildren. We have to establish priorities by budgeting responsibly and then living within that budget.
