Sixty to eighty per cent.

 

Problem: The vast majority of new jobs in this country are created by small businesses, but most of them fail within two years. 

We Americans have the greatest entrepreneurial spirit on earth - and we live in the world's best environment to start a small business. I did it seven years ago, and I'm proud to say that my little company is doing well. Still, it ain't easy. If it was, everybody would be doing it - or so I keep telling myself.

Solution: Bigger tax breaks for new businesses.

Let's relax the tax burden on emerging businesses during those critical early years when they're trying to start up and stay up.

Problem: Too many American jobs are being lost overseas.

As a true world economy develops, our standard of living is decreasing as the standards of developing countries rise.

Solution: Enact protectionist trade measures to ease the transition.

Tariffs on goods that we import from developing countries is the only short-term way to stop the erosion of our manufacturing base. Better education to improve our technical skills is the only viable long term solution. But we'd better get going; the objects in our mirror are larger than they appear.

Problem: Ernie Fletcher's "Right to Work" legislation.

"Right to Work" undermines the principle of collective bargaining, and isn't fair to organized labor.

Solution: Defeat any legislation, state or federal, that would implement "right to work" laws.

I will vote against "right to work" legislation. Period.
