With South Carolina in his pocket and momentum clearly shifting, I wondered what the economy under a Gingrich administration might look like. With the caveat that anything is better than what we have, I find a lot of the stuff that Newt espouses is red meat for a free market guy like me. Having said that; here is what he says he would do:
1. Keep Income Taxes low
2. Cut Corporate Taxes
3. Balance the Federal Budget
4. Repeal ObamaCare
5. Lower Medicare spending
6. Reform Medicaid
7. Create a private social security option
8. Slash regulation
9. Rely on business for new jobs
10. Tap more domestic energy
11. Rein in the Federal Reserve
12. Lure more foreign visitors and workers
So, what’s not to like. I left the details alone, but I have to give him this. If this is President Gingrich’s To-Do list day one, it’s not a bad start.
