TENET
Summarise the core beliefs (and the reasons for them) in 3-5 bullet points
P272-3
- Believe the economy should be completely free, opposed to taxation as tax aims to equal out society and conservatives
want a structure which isn’t equal. Taxation is theft as money is earned by working, people should keep their money so rich
