The budget is a difficult issue to tackle, to be sure. My plan is to rework the IRS to collect from each state in a three year incremental plan, rather than from you or any other tax paying citizen or resident (businesses will be a little different since they can span across state borders). The more federal funding is needed in a state, such as for the maintenance of our infrastructure or the requirements needed for homeland security, the higher the tax bill for each state. This will eliminate pork from inflating tax code changes, while making sure tax dollars go to the municipality or state you live in first, while also shoring up our Gross Domestic Product by ensuring a great idea for one district does not become the frivolity of another's, also providing each state with a means to tax more freely while closing loopholes that can be found between paying the state and federal government. The caveat will be tax breaks given to each state which is spending it's tax dollars on employing hard working Americans, incentivising job growth and that your state will do more to provide better education to ensure a stronger job market.

Healthcare in this country is another huge issue, specifically the huge, nationwide companies responsible for providing medical insurance and pharmaceuticals. These corporations will be given incentive to lower the costs of their products, thus providing more affordable service, based upon the number of patients they need to treat, with their tax dollars going to a new Department of Healthcare. All those IRS employees who would no longer be needed would fill the roles of this department, which would monitor and audit medical practitioners and pharmacies to prevent them from abusing their position to deny care to those who are less fortunate. If you are a medical practitioner in this country, you have an EIN, and we will provide incentives to those who provide care to more at more affordable prices in a very simple way.

The FDA will start manufacturing pharmaceuticals.

For those who are concerned that their dividends or returns on investment may be hampered, I can promise you can look forward to enjoying those same funds by purchasing federal drug bonds, giving all Americans an opportunity to invest in America on the promise of returns. Now, I can see where some would believe we wouldn't be fair competition to Pfizer, AstraZeneca, and GlaxoSmithKline, but all you need to do is look towards FedEx, UPS, and DHS and see how they thrive while sending you a bill via the U.S. Postal Service. As long as the FDA can and will compete by offering medicine at a more affordable rate, the only thing that can happen is a win for the American people. Furthermore, if your state has to provide these drugs to you, your state will see further breaks from their tax bill to the IRS.

Excellent question. Thank you.

Next question?
