• Mr. Williams is against Civil Asset Forfeiture. The Government has no right to seize private property or belongings of those who are suspected of committing a crime prior to a guilty verdict.
• Mr. Williams believes in there being a social safety net such as welfare to help people temporarily until they are back on their feet.
• Mr. Williams favors a Federal Universal Basic Income (also known as, Minimum Basic Income) of $1000 monthly to all U.S. citizens. As time progresses, automation will replace many human workers in the marketplace. The poor and middle class will be affected the most by being out of work. With a UBI in place, some welfare programs will become obsolete freeing up the bureaucracy. The funding from defunct welfare programs such as Food stamps (EBT) and a tax on automation will help finance this. A UBI of $1,000 per month will grow the National GDP by 12%, as the People will spend more in the marketplace. Every extra dollar that goes towards wage earners will add $1.21 to the economy, while for high-income earners will add .39 cents. The UBI will also allow individuals to focus more on learning new skills and innovation while protecting the free market.

• He believes people should be given a choice if they wish to be involved in a Union, or not.
• When it comes to lowering the taxes for the poor and middle class; Mr. Williams agrees strongly with rejecting bailout money to wealthy corporations for their bad business practices, increase the corporate tax rate from 21% to 28%, ending tax breaks for the 1% and increase their taxes, gradual cuts to foreign aid & lessen the U.S military interventions overseas (selectively) will help our economy thrive.
• Mr. Williams believes in taxing megachurches (not the small ones), and any church who decides to become politically involved.
• Mr. Williams believes Housing is a human right. If the U.S. federal government can give the military $715 billion (2022 DOD budget) of our tax dollars, therefore $20 billion to lessen or end homelessness and $25 billion to end hunger in the U.S. shouldn’t be a problem.
