Taxes should be lowered and raised based off of American wellbeing. Yes there should be taxes for the wealthy but it should not be unreasonable. It will hurt those who are trying to accumulate.

Yes, but simply to ensure that the wealthy pay their fair share. It is absurd that major corporations, such as Amazon and Walmart, pay no or little federal income taxes, while the average American foots the bill.

Yes, and close existing loopholes that facilitate tax evasion

If you had the power, what public issue would you allocate more tax dollars to, and why?

Abolish the IRS and raise the corporate tax rate to 55%

I think that if you raise the taxes on the rich, if they have a corporation/company they will raise the prices of products making it harder for poorer people to pay for everyday items, food, birthday presents, etc. I don't really have a distinct opinion for this question.

Abolish the IRS and the Income Tax, then create a national sales tax.
