In a recent town hall, Governor DeSantis expressed his support for a flat tax system, highlighting the need for simplicity, transparency, and economic growth. While addressing concerns about the potential impact on working families and billionaires, the governor emphasized his desire for a plan that would ensure people are better off than they are currently and pay fewer taxes overall.
Governor DeSantis stressed that the United States has a spending problem rather than a tax problem, pointing out that the federal government collected the highest percentage of taxes from the economy since World War II in the last available year. Yet, the country continues to accumulate significant levels of debt. To address this, he advocated for reducing the size and scope of government, aiming to restore the constitutional accountability envisioned by the founding fathers.
