Dear Editor,
Any soccer mom or hockey dad can tell you that spouses paying one another to cook and clean won't sustain their family. And for similar reasons, our nation's economy cannot be driven by the creation of minimum wage jobs with us serving one another hamburgers or selling one another Chinese made products.
Money must come in from outside the home, state and country for us to sustain our way of life. This is pretty basic stuff; however, apparently few elected State and Federal officials get it. As the number and size of social programs grow, taxes will increase. And while the volumes of regulations continue to multiply, enabling even more abusive government control, the production of American made goods will decrease and even more national income will be lost. Increased taxes plus disappearing jobs is not a formula for recovery. The only question remaining is who will be left to pay for all of the social programs and bureaucracies?
To improve our balance of trade we need to encourage the growth of American companies capable of producing and selling products to global markets. We must let our free enterprise system work as intended to create high paying jobs to fuel our recovery.
It isn't that difficult.
1 - Reduce all taxes and curb the government's obsession for control of every part of our lives.
2 - Reduce the amount of money sent to our enemies in the Middle East for crude oil and to our economic rivals in the Far East for the purchase of consumer goods.
3 - Stop sending aid to governments who "hate" America.
Now is the time to protect our freedom and defend America for the benefit of future generations. Can the free world exist without America?
