After reading the agenda of the TPP, I would suggest, low to medium taxes to begin with, then raise them up as the economy strengthens. That has proven to be successful, look at the Federal Reserve in the US, they raised the interest rates I believe 3 times, as the economy keeps improving. Also for anyone curious, debt is a good thing, it allows interest. So Joel, I would suggest, you doing subsidies for small businesses, in order to get the economy booming, as most national economies in the private secors are made up of small businesses. I vote for Joel. PS. I would enjoy be a running mate for you, or running under you, in the future. I have a large interest in politics, economy, and public interests.
