My idea of a solid economy is complete free trade and low taxes. When I run for president I will set for an agenda to create a system where there is no federal income tax. The government will be funded through fees and tolls. Very low tariffs if any. Social security stays the same as it is as does medicare and medicade.  We can still have government services without income tax. I would also repeal excess taxes on beer, cigarettes, and tobacco.

Health care: health and medical savings accounts that work similar to social security
                    competition across state lines for insurance companies
                    require companies to provide private health insurance for full time employees
                    possibly create a public option for those who qualify and are uninsured

I don't like the idea of tort reform any more than I like the idea of a death panel. I know the topic is economics but I thought I'd cover every economic issue I could think of.

The fact that we are on the internet implies that we are supporting the free market as we speak. However, there are some downfalls with pure capitalism such as illegal immigration, sweat shops, and environmental hazards.
