Government

I believe government should not be in the business of picking the winners and the losers.

Tax breaks for anybody, whether it’s big oil companies or “green” manufactur­ers, should not be in our tax code. We need a flat tax.

Government should not be regulating “swipe fees.” Any regulation in this area picks one business, either the banks or the retailers, as the winner.

Subsidizin­g corn farmers (who produce HFCS and ethanol) makes them winners over those who grow sugar cane.

None of it makes any sense in what is supposed to be a capitalist economic system. If we end this business of picking the winners and losers, there won’t be a need for the campaign reform suggested.
