I am seeking the office of State Senator for Davie and Rowan counties to bring a conservative voice to Raleigh. I vote according to three documents, the Holy Bible, the US Constitution, and the state Constitution. In my previous terms I have been rated the most conservative member of the Senate. The tax and spend philosophy of the liberal Democrats in Raleigh have put education, transportation, businesses, and agriculture in a precarious position. We are at a critical juncture in our state. I truly understand what working families face and I've seen what our senior citizens experience. It is crucial that I return to Raleigh to fight for the citizens of Davie and Rowan. I will continue to fight for the rights of the unborn, marriage between one man and one woman, lower taxes, property rights, gun rights, senior citizens, better education, better roads, and efficiency in government. I have never missed a vote in 7 years and will not avoid making the tough decisions to put this state back on the right track.
The most critical need for the state will take longer than two years to implement. It will be change in philosophy at every level of government. How do we manage the taxpayers money wisely and with the greatest efficiency. Most politicians look for a shiny new program to roll out every two years just in time for an election (state senate and house are on two year terms). My philosophy is long term conservative approach with a short term picture of ten years and a longer term picture of fifty years. I look back at my grandfather and statesmen in the past that made wise decisions concerning the direction of our state. However I have seen the foolish mistakes of the past and saw them first hand as we have destroyed the state ability to manage the taxpayer’s dollar. Government cannot help but to feed itself by obtaining more of our tax dollars and rights as citizens. Whether it’s a new tax being created or property rights being taken away, government has become the problem. The problem in Raleigh is the liberal tax and spend leadership that has set atop powers of authority for far too long. {Some have been in office over forty years} In that position the Democrats pass out crumbs to the rank and file legislators that will vote and go along with the status quo and not raise questions. Not me, the people of Davie and Rowan deserve better than to be held to the whims of a few in Raleigh. I will continue to stand up and fight for Christian conservative values.
The best thing for the NC General Assembly to do for businesses is to get out of the way. Our taxes are the highest in the southeast both in corporate and personal income tax. This makes it difficult to attract let alone keep companies in our state. The best incentive is to lower the taxes for all businesses not just a few. Politicians like to give out incentives and pork barrel to make themselves look like a hero. This hurts long standing businesses by raising their taxes and fees. Also they like to take credit for accomplishments that they had little or no part of. Government officials at all levels need to re read the Constitution and Declaration of Independence to understand why We the People are so mad at the government. State Government has allowed certain agencies to run amuck in passing new forms of regulations that are almost impossible to follow or to get a clear understanding. The liberals don’t understand simple economics and believe the only way to function as a government is to raise your taxes even higher. Government should be ran like a small business. With customer service to the citizens at the highest level and wise stewardship of taxpayer dollars. In NC we could lower Corporate Income tax to keep our jobs and attract new ones. We have the best people to work, the best location to put a business, we need the change the climate of excessive regulations and higher taxes to make our state economy grow. Limiting the size of government and keeping it in its constitutional bounds will keep us competitive in this global market.
In my time in the State Senate I have appreciate all the prayers and words of encouragement to do my best for the people of Davie and Rowan counties. And to those detractors that attack my Christian Conservative philosophy, I know I stand with the likes of President Ronald Reagan and Senator Jesse Helms in standing up and fighting for God and Country and not the special interest groups.
