Answer:

He was a pro-business conservative who favored tax cuts and limited government spending.

Step-by-step explanation:

Coolidge adopted the taxation policies of his Secretary of the Treasury, Andrew Mellon, who advocated "scientific taxation" — the notion that lowering taxes will increase, rather than decrease, government receipts. Congress agreed, and tax rates were reduced in Coolidge's term.
