Welcome to the Way the Renaissance Man podcast.
This is a show about ideas, personal empowerment, and celebrating the rational life. Our goal is to help each other discover the tools needed to better focus our minds, integrate our thoughts with actions, and live the lives we really want with your host Jim Woods.
Who's On:
Today's Guest is Grover Norquist, (Twitter: @GroverNorquist) is president of Americans for Tax Reform, a taxpayer advocacy group he founded in 1985 at President Reagan’s request. ATR works to limit the size and cost of government and opposes higher taxes at the federal, state, and local levels and supports tax reform that moves towards taxing consumed income one time at one rate.
ATR organizes the Taxpayer Protection Pledge, which asks all candidates for federal and state office to commit themselves in writing to the American people to oppose all net tax increases. In the 115th Congress, 212 House members and 45 Senators have taken the pledge.
What's Discussed:
- The Formation of Americans for Tax Reform
- What is the purpose of the organization
- How they hold politicians accountable at every level of government
- Accountability as a fundamental concept of the Way of the Renaissance Man
