This morning, Steve Mnuchin confirmed he&rsquo;s been tapped for Treasury secretary. The Hollywood producer and former Wall Street executive <a href="http://www.cnbc.com/2016/11/30/exclusive-trumps-treasury-pick-says-i-want-to-slash-taxes-across-the-board.html?utm_source=1851franchise.com&utm_medium=article&utm_campaign=cnbc-trumps-treasury-pick-says-he-wants-to-slash-taxes-across-the-board-8120" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" style="text-decoration:none;" target="_blank">told CNBC</a> on Wednesday that his focus will be &ldquo;stimulating economic growth and creating jobs through tax reform.&rdquo;

A major goal of the Trump campaign is to reduce corporate tax rates from 30 percent to 15 percent, and Mnuchin is on board with trying to make that happen.

&quot;Our most important priority is sustained economic growth, and I think we can absolutely get to sustained 3 to 4 percent GDP, and that is absolutely critical for the country,&quot; Mnuchin told CNBC. &quot;To get there, our number one priority is tax reform. This will be the largest tax change since [President Ronald] Reagan.&quot;

Another goal of Mnuchin&rsquo;s is to simplify taxes for the average citizen. &quot;Taxes are way too complicated, and people spend way too much time worrying about ways to get them lower,&quot; he said.
