Steve Hilton, a candidate for Governor of California, outlines a platform centered on restoring economic growth and affordability through radical government reform. His tax proposal eliminates state income tax for households earning under $100,000, replacing it with a 7.5% flat tax for higher earners to incentivize investment. Hilton identifies systemic corruption and excessive regulation—specifically the influence of unions, trial lawyers, and climate-related mandates—as the primary drivers of California’s housing crisis and high energy costs. He advocates for reversing prison closures to improve public safety, increasing domestic oil production to lower gas prices, and implementing school choice to break the monopoly of public education unions. By targeting the "homeless industrial complex" and bureaucratic waste, he aims to shift the state’s fiscal trajectory back toward a model of individual opportunity and efficient governance.
