INFLATION: Cut Regulations & Spending to Bring Down Prices

Agree

Cut government regulations & spending to bring down the cost of goods for citizens.

Description: "Donald Trump promised to lower the corporate tax rate to 20%, further reducing the income levy on the largest US companies that he already slashed while president, according to people familiar with the remarks. The current corporate tax rate is 21%, but even a small reduction represents a tax cut worth billions of dollars each year for profitable US companies. Trump called the 20% figure a nice, round figure, according to two sources briefed on his comments. Trump vowed to make permanent the Republicans’ sweeping 2017 tax law and urged renewal of key portions of the bill, including tax cuts for individuals and small businesses, which expire next year. He also advocated to exempt tipped earnings from federal taxes, an idea he first previewed at a rally on Sunday in Las Vegas. The former president also promised the executives he would slash regulations if he won a second term. He also disparaged the permitting process for energy projects and other purposes as yet another form of regulation or taxation."

Description: "Early in his administration, President Trump directed agencies to review existing regulations that potentially “burden the development or use of domestically produced energy resources” by issuing Executive Order 13783, Promoting Energy Independence and Economic Growth. After a robust process and consideration of public comments, EPA is removing unnecessary and inappropriate burdens on the United States energy sector with two final rules that amend the 2016 New Source Performance Standards for the oil and natural gas industry."
