Okay, people we have got this sewn up unless we blow it Reagan had a three pronged appoach, the same one we have. If we keep the focus on ENERGY!!! National SECURITY!!! Oh and the ECONOMY!!! and even try to relate the ENERGY!!! to the ECONOMY!!! then we might be able to throw in a dash of BORDER SECURITY!!! or TAXES!!!
So as food prices rise, everything from cars to wholesale goods rise by 30-75%. The reallity is the cost of construction goods which is pressured by fuel cost in shipment related expenses is the only thing casuing a building slow down. The dirty little secret is that it was almost cheaper to build new than to buy a house that needs work. When we started to focus on the border in 07' the cost rose of labor rose because more companies were forced to hire legal citizens. That is why raising taxes on business is so stupid. Not only have overhead startup type expenses gone up but the entire cost of doing business have increased by almost 50%. Top that off with a tax code that is lost in weeds of back log due to the mountains of paperwork the have chosen to traffic in.
We need the FairTax.
We need a real sense of border security.
And we need an energy policy that make common sense, buying our enemy an empire is loonacy.
