Presidential Candidates Economic Plans: Mike Huckabee

So I was called to task for calling John McCain the only remaining Republican contender. I still think he’s got the nomination, but many people are interested, so I thought I’d cave and offer the basics of the Mike Huckabee plan. Since he still in the race.
And because I’ve got emails about it, I’ll do a bonus on Monday: Ron Paul.
The basics of economic plans from Mike Huckabee
- Get rid of income tax and replace it with a “Fair Tax.”
- Expand Bush tax cuts.
- Increase spending on defense and infrastructure.
- Protect American jobs from “unfair” foreign competition.
Maybe I’m not being fair, but Huckabee’s economic plans seem to be much less developed than the three I’ve posted on so far. And it doesn’t seem to make sense, since I’m not sure how to pay for increased spending with tax cuts.
What do you think of economic plans by Mike Huckabee?
