Let's bring more jobs to Los Angeles especially entertainment jobs and lower the cost of living at the same time!
We can do this by lowering California’s incredibly high business, sales, income and property taxes - and canceling the city services tied to those tax revenues, in order to balance the budget.
Less government is better for the poor
Lower business and income taxes will attract companies and high income earners to Los Angeles. The resulting increase in spending and jobs will especially help the poor and unemployed.
A lower sales tax will disproportionately benefit the poor, who spend greater portions of their income on transportation and food.
A lower property tax would significantly lower the costs of renting a home or apartment which would again benefit low income earners the most and at the same time increase the value of LA properties!
City services must be cut in order to balance the budget.
Services such as trash collection, animal services, the zoo, convention center, st. sweeping, public transportation, public education and fire dept. are all monopolies – as such they are inherently inefficient and slow to innovate.
When they City stops providing these services, the services that have real demand, will come back – they will be contracted by individuals who desire the service and private companies. When the services are opened up to competition, the free market will dramatically lower costs and improve services.
How do we get there?
The Ideas Move Society Voter-Block
A group of like-minded people voting together, as a block.
The goal is to alter the balance of power, currently in favor of corporate lobbyists and large unions.
A group of just 500 people voting together is enough to sway a local election.
Join the Ideas Move Society Voter-Block to empower your vote.
*** Reaganomics lowered taxes for the rich and used debt to cover the budget deficit. Ideas Move Society is advocating something very different! We want lower taxes for all income earners and we want to cut government spending to balance the budget, rather than using debt or money printing.
