Lutnick also outlined the president’s other tax strategies, which include eliminating tax on tips, overtime, and Social Security, and implementing significant reductions to individual and corporate taxes.
He also stated that the “goal is to have external revenue taxes, not internal revenue. He also went on to say that the payment of taxeshave now become like a “Stockholm syndrome” to taxpayers.
