Wow, you’re now finally taking the bull by the horns and helping to get the conservative message out there. While you’re my Congressman you were also a shoe-in… so I tried to help John Faulk in his race against Sheila Lee.
Now would be a great time to start a revolution I would entitle “Bringing back small government.” Why do most people know who the president is but many can’t tell you who their governor, state representative, or local councilman is? Why should you have to deal with thousands of requests for federal favors?
I suggest that favors begin in the local community. If I want a bridge built I ask my councilman. If enough people want the bridge built they take it to the state and ask for help. The state takes it to the taxpayers and the bridge is either built or not built. The federal government has no say so in the bridge what-so-ever.
Get the Federal government out of our lives!! Cut federal taxes. There is no money left for the states and local governments to even tax. If God demands 10% then the government should demand less… I’d go for 9.95%.
Thanks for listening… and thanks for finally getting out there and pushing the conservative message. Better late than never.
Sincerely,
Eric B.
