Matsumoto said he is planning to revive Hawaii's economy by reducing taxes. Matsumoto reasons that this would help the middle and lower income families by giving them more money to spend, thus improving the economy. Matsumoto said he is running on traditional values, and believes that families are the the foundation of society. Matsumoto said laws that are passed do not help families and feels that more effort should be put to solving family problems. Matsumoto is a person with strong family values, and he would like everyone to have them, too.
Nobody nowadays values marriage anymore.
