| I'll respectfully bow out of the conversation when the economic policy discussion turns to best social path. I do not mean that as a dig, it's just more subjective and not something I am passionate about. I can't answer if much of what you think would be solved would actually be solved with more protectionism but I do have my doubts.
My only thoughts are these. It sounds like reverting to pre Reagan tax rates may actually work better for what I think you have described. I can see that, but it is not my preference. I actually like the US tax rates where they are because we have a competitive tax posture on the world stage and attract foreign investment. I think deregulation in targeted areas (Healthcare is big) and what DOGE was attempting in making sure gov spending is efficient are areas I would rather see progress made. I do think taking cap gains to parity with ordinary income would be a good thing. | |
