The plan rejects shifting tax and spending programs as harmful to employment and price stability. It endorses a stabilizing budget with long term tax rates aimed at a $3 billion surplus at 96 percent employment, debt retirement from surpluses, and annual reviews to adjust rates only in emergencies. The approach avoids forecast reliance and seeks genuine fiscal program with predictability for individuals and businesses.
