Issue Position: Economy and Jobs

Issue Position

The federal government has not/cannot/won't ever create a single productive job. People do work for the government and they call that work a job, but every government "job" consumes tax dollars. Only private sector employers can truly create "jobs" and increase the tax base because what's done there is done in the marketplace and work done adds value to the economy. The "jobs" situation will only improve with less government spending and regulation which will in turn encourage private investment and true job creation.
