There is a story in the Bible about how Jacob stole Essau’s birth right for a bowl of pottage.
Well, I keep getting asked what I intend to do for people if elected. It is a question about how cheap the souls of the voters are.
The founders designed a society where we would have economic stability, wealth, and political freedom.
Simply said there are four principals to get there and I promise to gage my decisions based upon them.
Non-Intervention, ie do not start wars finish them. Wars dislocate the economy and are, at best risky business.
Currency Stability- all governments finance themselves three ways taxes, borrowing and theft. Currency not supported by taxes and borrowing is supported by theft. This is why you are paying double the price for gas you paid in 2001 even though the cost has gone down 35%. Simply put government currency manipulation stole your buying power. I promise to do all I can to stabilize the currency.
Free Trade. Not government blessed trade. No one fights with their business partners, so trade is the path to peace, and the founders knew it. At home this means the least regulation on business as possible. I was up in the country last week and heard the Missouri Hospital Association argue that we needed to rob (tax) to cover their charitable costs. But at the same time, we shouldn’t open up competition in the medical field to drop those costs. Free Trade means we all face the rough and tumble of the market.
Finally limit the power of the government.
Simple ideas. I thought that changes to a society where you can plan and prosper was plenty of reason to vote for my programs. It is not for some.
If you think you are getting something from a politician except protection of your right to try and better yourself then you are sadly deluded. If you think that you will vote for the politician with the biggest promises than you forget that he who has the gold makes the rules. Personal greed is no way to hire a public servant.
When you expect to get trinkets from your politicians in return for your freedom and prosperity, you deserve the slavery you suffer.
