Issue Position

Date: Jan. 1, 2019
Issues: Finance and Banking Government Budget and Spending

I believe in sound money. Our currency has devalued to a factor of over 25x since the creation of our Central Bank (which is actually privately owned), meaning that one dollar today has the same buying power that about 4 cents had in 1913. Prosperity is a function of liberty - not of artificially inflated currency. Our government must adopt conservative fiscal policy with the requirement that it operate within the confines of a balanced budget. I'm in favor of downsizing our federal government and auditing, if not ending, the Federal Reserve.
