Message | We seek to reform the tax act in this nation. The system is broken, tax rates are comparatively high within the region and hamper economic growth and progress. The current system forces companies overseas and sees jobs leave our borders as a result. We advocate for the above proposals and suggest that the current and any future government give strong consideration to income tax reform - specifically the implementation of a progressive income tax regime. |

Random fact: Party candidates for head of state elections are not visible to the public. This means that you cannot see who will run and who will not, which adds another strategic element to the elections. |
Random quote: "In a sense we have come to our nation's capital to cash a cheque. When the architects of our republic wrote the magnificent words of the Constitution and the Declaration of Independence, they were signing a promissory note to which every American was to fall heir. This note was a promise that all men, yes, black men as well as white men, would be guaranteed the unalienable rights of life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness." - Martin Luther King Jr. |
