Why do you think the president should lower the taxes?

This is definitely a debatable question! Many people think that the president should lower taxes because some people are paying too much while others are finding ways to avoid taxes. In theory this is true. However, if he does lower taxes who will pay for the things we need in our country? Taxes definitely have a purpose regardless of how the money is raised. One solution that I agree with is lowering or deleting income taxes and raising the state sales taxes. This would give the same amount of money to the government but would force people such as illegal immigrants and drug dealers to pay the same amount of taxes as other members in our society.
