Issue Position
In addition, by removing any eligibility criteria, the plan eliminates the bureacracy that would be necessary to monitor people.
Issue Position
Reducing taxes and regulations on small businesses will create jobs and renew our communities.

With no special benefits for the government to hand out, there would be no point to having lobbyists for special interests.

0 ON THE ISSUES A plan for change Our schools are not always preparing our children to really advance in life.
Source: www.davidpan4congress.com
Parents should have the information they need to make decisions about their children’s education, and they should have access to all the educational options in their community.
Source: www.davidpan4congress.com
I support charter schools and school vouchers to allow all parents to choose the best education for their children.

The irreproducibility crisis has undermined academic research, leading to false claims that have driven public policy in the wrong directions.

Issue Position
Today it is twice that much and rising, primarily due to the steadily increasing costs of our welfare and entitlement programs.
Source: www.davidpan4congress.com
We cannot solve our debt problem without reforming those programs, and my plan to do this will save over $1 trillion per year, leading to long-term financial stability.
Source: www.davidpan4congress.com
My plan is to phase out all of our current welfare and entitlement programs and return this money (over $4 trillion per year) to the American people.
Source: www.davidpan4congress.com
The plan will not create inflation because it will take money that the federal government is already spending and shift it toward payments to individuals rather than to government agencies.
Source: www.davidpan4congress.com
This is more than most welfare recipients currently receive in benefits.
Source: www.davidpan4congress.com
The plan guarantees Medicare and Social Security under the existing system for anyone 37 and older.
Source: www.davidpan4congress.com
This plan avoids benefit cuts and higher taxes by changing the system for younger people to make it solvent.
Source: www.davidpan4congress.com
If they do this consistently, their retirements accounts would grow to fund a much better retirement than the current Social Security system.
Source: www.davidpan4congress.com
The plan reduces the federal budget deficit by over $1 trillion per year over the long term.

Issue Position
-All welfare and entitlement programs would be phased out, and the money saved would be enough to provide $16,000 per year to every citizen 21 years of age and older.
Source: www.davidpan4congress.com
-Those who are within 30 years of retirement may choose to stay with the existing system of Social Security and Medicare according to the current rules of those programs.
Source: www.davidpan4congress.com
These plans can stay solvent because there would be a new system for younger people, who would start to receive $16,000 per year right away, and this amount would not change thoughout their lives, though it could adjust for inflation.
Source: www.davidpan4congress.com
-Existing programs such as SNAP and housing vouchers would be closed to new applicants.
Source: www.davidpan4congress.com
Current recipients could choose to either stay in these existing programs or begin receiving $16,000 per year in the new system, but not both.
Source: www.davidpan4congress.com
The existing welfare and entitlement programs would thereby be phased out gradually through attrition.
Source: www.davidpan4congress.com
Issue Position
In our current welfare programs, people lose benefits such as food stamps, Medicaid, and housing vouchers when they start to earn money on their own or begin to build up assets.
Source: www.davidpan4congress.com
This system discourages people from working and saving because working people receive few benefits.
Source: www.davidpan4congress.com
Healthcare costs in the U.S. have spiraled out of control, consuming 18% of our GDP, while no other country in the world spends more than 12%.
Source: www.davidpan4congress.com
The basic problem is that the people receiving health benefits have no incentive to consider the costs.
Source: www.davidpan4congress.com
This situation leads to the dominance in the healthcare sector of health insurance companies and government programs such as Medicaid and Medicare, rather than the doctors and nurses providing care.
Source: www.davidpan4congress.com
A first key reform would be to require all healthcare providers to post prices for their procedures.
Source: www.davidpan4congress.com
This transparency in pricing would give patients the information they need to make informed choices.
Source: www.davidpan4congress.com
A second key reform would be to require insurance providers to offer a high-deductible catastrophic insurance plan coupled with a health savings account that can be used to pay for routine care below the deductible.
Source: www.davidpan4congress.com
Such plans engage the recipients of care in decision-making that optimizes service and costs for their individual situations.
Source: www.davidpan4congress.com
Finally, my plan to phase out the current welfare and entitlement system to create a universal basic income would pay $4000 per year into every individual American’s health savings account and allow each person to pay health insurance premiums from this account.
Source: www.davidpan4congress.com
Medicaid and Medicare would be privatized, and people could still choose to remain in these programs by paying the monthly premiums.
Source: www.davidpan4congress.com
Of this money, $12,000 per year would be a direct deposit into bank accounts, and $4000 per year would be in the form of a health insurance voucher, to be used on the private market, thereby creating universal coverage in a totally private system.
Source: www.davidpan4congress.com
-Medicaid and Medicare would be privatized and remain as options for people to choose as health care options alongside private plans.
Source: www.davidpan4congress.com
There would no longer be a special tax deduction for employer-sponsored health insurance.
Source: www.davidpan4congress.com
Instead, everyone would receive the $4000 per year health insurance voucher and could also choose to devote more money to purchasing more expensive plans.
Source: www.davidpan4congress.com
Such a system would create universal coverage with a maximum amount of competition amongst health care providers to provide the best coverage at the lowest cost.

Issue Position
As a professor for over 20 years, I have seen the deterioration of higher education.
Source: www.davidpan4congress.com
We need to create new guidelines for government funding of higher education that demands more accountability from researchers and more diversity of perspectives.
Source: www.davidpan4congress.com
Issue Position
Our open borders have allowed in drugs, criminals, and terrorists and prevented us from having a serious discussion about immigration.
Source: www.davidpan4congress.com
To regain control over our future, we need to secure our border so that we can develop a consistent immigration policy.

Issue Position
Will the Universal Basic Income plan create inflation?
Source: www.davidpan4congress.com
Issue Position
To make our streets safe again, we need to recruit more police and enforce our laws.
Source: www.davidpan4congress.com
Issue Position
-While the details of such a plan can be up for debate, the basic premise is that people themselves will have a better idea of how best they can use their money than the government would.
Source: www.davidpan4congress.com
Issue Position
Will senior citizens be losing their Medicare and Social Security benefits?
Source: www.davidpan4congress.com
Issue Position
We all know that the Social Security Administration is headed for insolvency, but few politicians are willing to address the problem.
Moreover, the current solutions on offer to either raise taxes or reduce benefits are not very appealing.
My plan would guarantee existing benefits for everyone 37 and older, while introducing a sustainable system for the next generation.
Without this plan, the Medicare and Social Security funds will be depleted by 2034, forcing a mandatory 20% reduction in benefits or an increase in taxes.
Issue Position
In addition, in our existing system, welfare recipients lose their benefits if they have too much income or assets.
My plan eliminates this penalty and gives people the freedom to work and save.
Why does the plan provide $16,000 per year to people who do not work?
By providing the same amount to everyone, the plan eliminates the penalty for working and saving.
