Which political ideology do you most identify with?
What role, if any, do you think the government should play in regulating the economy?
1. Levy taxes to fund national defense and a social safety net in the form of a negative income tax or UBI (not social security, medicare, or medicaid).
2. Enforce contracts and antitrust laws
3. Levy pigouvian taxes on externality-generating enterprises. This includes Carbon emitting industries. Use revenue from pigouvian taxes on negative externality generating industries (like coal) to fund pigouvian subsidies on positive externality businesses.
4. Control inflation through interest rates determined by the FED.
