Episode 18Taxes & Economic Reform, part 2. Brian and Andy concluded a two-part discussion exploring the ever-important topic of our money! They discussed taxes and economic reform in Virginia, exploring the Commonwealth Liberal Party of Virginia's (CLPVA’s) platform and recommendations. They discussed the party's preference for state sales tax (addressing ideas like the FairTax and land value taxes) over income and property taxes, the need to address perceived problems with current taxation systems, and the importance of minimizing the tax burden on citizens. The conversation concluded with an emphasis on open-mindedness and willingness to discuss and negotiate these principles and policies for the greatest benefit of Virginia.
