Income inequality is a feature of capitalism, those who work more challenging jobs are compensated accordingly—eliminating this dynamic shouldn't be on the agenda in my opinion. Likewise, poverty can only be minimised as a percentage of poverty is entirely circumstantial and not because of malfunctions in the economy. "Solving" poverty is a fool's errand.

I would like to see the corporate tax abolished and replaced with an import tariff, to spur domestic investment and, ultimately, job growth. If we can achieve full employment and wage growth (raising the minimum wage if need be), income inequality will be irrelevant.
