DeSantis prioritizes single income for families in presidential economic plan.
Gov. Ron DeSantis Aims to Empower Families and Boost Economic Growth
Gov. Ron DeSantis (R-FL) is taking a fresh approach to economic planning, going beyond the traditional GOP strategies of tax cuts and deregulation. In an op-ed released on Monday, DeSantis outlined his vision for the economy and emphasized his commitment to supporting families.
“We want to be a country that makes things, where a family can raise children on a single income, and where young people can develop the skills and values necessary to build a decent life and contribute to their communities.”
This focus on family support aligns with a broader shift within the GOP towards prioritizing government assistance for families. Venture capitalist Blake Masters, who gained attention during his 2022 campaign, has been a vocal advocate for federal policies that enable families to thrive on a single income. While controversial, this idea has gained traction among economic populists on the Right who believe in incentivizing family-building.
DeSantis also set an ambitious goal of achieving 3% annual GDP growth. This metric, which measures economic growth over time, is often used by presidential candidates to gauge their success. DeSantis’s plan aims to unleash stronger economic growth through policy reforms, while criticizing President Joe Biden’s regulatory approach as “job-crippling.”
Peeling Back Bureaucracy and Restoring Accountability
One key aspect of DeSantis’s economic plan is reducing federal bureaucracy. He plans to address the excessive rule-making process and the power of federal agencies. This aligns with recent efforts by Republicans in Congress to target the administrative state and increase oversight.
DeSantis vows to use his constitutional authority to restore accountability in the executive branch, relocate agencies outside of Washington, D.C., and cut through the bureaucratic red tape. He also intends to curb the power of the Federal Reserve and rein in federal spending.
With his bold and comprehensive approach, DeSantis aims to unleash red-hot economic growth and empower American families. As the 2024 elections approach, he is positioning himself as a strong contender, although former President Donald Trump currently holds a significant lead within the Republican Party.
