We’re Not On The Same Page As Those In Charge
By: Doug Busselman, Executive Vice President
One of the principle concepts in the “November is Coming ” campaign is that unless we change those who are in charge of government’s impositions – we’re going to continue to be getting the same (and probably in a worse dosage). It is oblivious that those running things in Washington, D.C. and in Carson City are committed to giving us more of the same.
This report from Rasmussen clearly shows that “they” think what they are doing is the right thing to be doing. It also clearly shows that those of us being done to aren’t of the same mindset.
Having come to the conclusion that our government is taking us in the wrong direction we need to understand and be resolute in the matter of taking actions to fix what’s going badly. The first step of that process is changing those who are in charge of taking us in the wrong direction. Not only do we need to follow through with our own actions to bring about this change – we also need to reach out and connect with others, encouraging their actions for the same results.
As it relates to state representation in Carson City, our attention must be on not only working to elect representatives who are dedicated to reducing state government’s spending and expansion, but we also must work to seek the support of voters outside of our local districts to elect the same type of candidates in their respective areas.
Unless the current majority party is reduced in their numbers by enough members to have the votes less than the two-thirds level – especially in the Nevada Assembly – the same outcomes of the past number of legislative sessions will result. Government spending will be increased and tax burdens made heavier, further weakening an already very sick economy. Furthermore, this being a year where redistricting of voting districts is on the agenda, the majority party running rough-shod over the legislative process will result in rural Nevada being further disadvantaged in legislative representation and the power structure being reaffirmed for another decade.
Although it has been said in the past – “elections have consequences” – the 2010 Election ranks as perhaps the most critical we’ve faced. It is imperative that all which can be done – be done – electing representatives who share our mainstream values and consider limited government as the best course for economic prosperity and freedom.
The champions of larger government want us to believe that their warped perspective of government being the central provider for everything is the way things should be and expanded to become more so. Those who advocate this agenda and who wish us to be grateful for their benevolence in providing us with what they say we need…should be sent home in November, no longer in their political posts of power, redistributing their way to an expanded base of dependent minions.
