Issue Position: Fiscal Responsibility

Issue Position

We as a Nation have a 19.5 trillion dollar deficit. Each of us owes $60,000 to pay it off. If you only count those of us who pay income tax, tax payers each owe $162,000. Our State has to figure out how to balance last year's budget with about 150 million dollar shortfall and will have to tackle a shortfall of 500 million dollars for the current year. The leadership of the Democrat Party says Education cannot be touched. Education makes up approximately 60% of the entire State's budget. We have to make tough choices. We have to have elected leaders that recognize most of the problem is massive bloated government. Failed government programs continue to cost us money and demand that WE THE PEOPLE continue to give more of our own money to support them every year.

You will choose between candidates who want to reduce government and candidates who think you are not paying enough and that government should grow. WE THE PEOPLE should decide enough is enough. We cannot wait 8 more years to tackle tough fiscal issues.
