We Need Candidates Who Put The Focus On Growing Private Sector Opportunity
By: Doug Busselman, Executive Vice President
It’s only July and the crap that passes for campaign messaging right now is already old and tired. Our airwaves has been saturated by a U.S. Senator, seeking re-election on the basis that the person who is running against him should be perceived as someone too far out there to warrant consideration. Never mind that the Senator has been in power, successfully implementing policies that have our economy in shambles. He can’t win re-election on successful defense of his record (given the dire consequences that those “accomplishments” have caused)…so the strategy is a scorched-earth approach to destroy the opponent’s reputation – taking the negatives for her down to match his own sorry approval rating.
Meanwhile, has anyone thought about perhaps considering a campaign idea on advancing proactive policies, designed at building our economy? Well -- Yes (since I’ve asked) -- there is something like that out there…although I’ve not seen too many actual candidates embracing the idea.
Here is a ready-made blue print of policy to get things rolling with. In addition to the highlighted post, American Solutions Website has been an outstanding place to visit to get solid information on policies oriented for building our economy through enhanced opportunities for the private sector to be successful. Here is one example of the extremely valuable policy ideas that are offered for those who might be interested in formulating a proactive agenda that really can work to stimulate the economy.
Unlike those in power now believe (that goes for the Nevada Legislature as well as in Washington, D.C.) – you don’t accomplish making people’s lives better with bigger doses of government. Prosperity comes by unburdening the private sector from government’s intrusive, command and control – tax and spend policies.
As the private sector is given the ability to prosper, people who are committed to being self-reliant and accept responsibility for their own destiny are unleashed to participate in making the entire economy bloom.
Instead of the messages on how those in government need to be “thanked” for all that they have been doing (just look around at how well that’s going) – we need to hear from champions of the private sector who say “Vote for me and I’ll work with you and others to get government out of your wallet and off your back.”
Contrary to the belief of the majority party – that we owe government whatever they decide they want to spend…advancing opportunity for the private sector through tax reductions and implementing policies of responsible, sustainable levels of appropriate degrees of government infrastructure will get us to where we need to be.

There's a lot of screaming about tax rates for business. The Federal rate is 35%. However, 68% of the businesses in the U.S. pay NO income tax at all, at any rate. More preferential treatment isn't needed. Businesses, most of them huge corporations, need to pay up. SMALL businesses should be given more breaks.

Preferential treatment for businesses hasn't worked. It's why we're in the mess we're in. 68% of businesses in the U.S. pay no income tax at all. Most of those are huge corporations. SMALL businesses deserve more breaks. They're the ones paying their taxes.
