Newt asks you to join the conservative revolution
August 31, 2009
Note: I am not a big Newt Gingrich supporter. Though he did a lot to get the contract with America when he ran the House when Republicans controlled it, but his recent cozying up with Hillary Clinton on her health care plan and some of his recent antics make me wary of where he really stands on issues. Again, I think it is the difference between being a conservative and being a politician. I think Newt is the latter. – FedUpEditor
President Obama and his allies in Washington rammed through a $787 Billion package to “stimulate” our economy, and the Obama Stimulus has completely failed.
This policy of politicians borrowing from the Chinese to pay off big business and big bureaucracy has not created a single job, nor jumpstarted our economy. Contrary to all the rosy predictions and promises made, the Obama Stimulus has only succeeded in growing our annual deficit to an unprecedented $1.8 Trillion while our country continues to bleed jobs at a historic clip. America now borrows 46 cents for every dollar Uncle Sam spends as unemployment continues to swell closer to 10 percent.
The Left argues that “stimulus” is how you grow the economy, but most Americans know that you grow the economy by creating the conditions for stronger job creation. President Obama just doesn’t get it. His liberal Stimulus package failed, and now he wants to double down on failure with energy and health care taxes that will kill jobs and economic growth for years to come. But we understand that creating permanent, long-term economic growth and new jobs requires a real “change” in how Washington does business.
Four very bold “Reagan-Style” tax changes will reinvigorate America’s small businesses, spur job growth, and bring back prosperity:
- Cut Payroll Taxes in Half for two years to substantially increase worker take-home pay and encourage employers to create more jobs.
- Abolish the Capital Gains Tax so America can compete with China. This will spark an American economic renaissance with capital investment for new factories, new companies and technologies, and new long lasting jobs.
- Reduce the Corporate Tax Rate to match Ireland’s 12.5 percent to make America immediately more competitive in the world market instead of punishing businesses and sending good jobs overseas.
- Eliminate the Death Tax to stop double-taxing and punishing responsible Americans by confiscating from those who work hard, provide, and save for their families.
Each of these commonsense policy solutions would drive job creation and truly stimulate our economy. We can create a new era of enduring prosperity without tax increases, bailouts for the irresponsible, and wasteful government spending. Reasonable Americans, and especially conservatives, need to once again get engaged in the battle of ideas. Our country needs and deserves better policy ideas than what we’re getting out of Washington.
And that is why Citizens for the Republic (CFTR), needs your urgent contribution of $25 or more to not only stop the reckless spending, tax and cap climate bill, and government takeover of healthcare, but offer positive and proven solutions for the future.
As a special thank you for a donation of $75 or more I will send you a copy of my documentary, Ronald Reagan: Rendezvous with Destiny.
This groundbreaking film documents the life and legacy of the 40th President of the United States and includes never-before-seen interviews with former heads of state, cabinet officials and White House staff.
Started in 1977, by Ronald Reagan, Citizens for the Republic continues the charge he gave us-to promote the principles of limited government, maximum freedom, personal responsibility, peace through strength, and defense of the dignity of every individual. Citizens for the Republic is dedicated to defending our rights and making sure that America remains that Shining City Upon a Hill.
CFTR needs your immediate financial support to speak out and oppose the ineffective, wasteful, and reckless policies of the Obama Administration. By working with CFTR, you can play a vital role in rebuilding our country and our movement from the bottom up with solutions that will create jobs and usher in a new era of prosperity and balanced budgets.
Your urgent contribution of $25, $50, $100, $250, $500 or more to CFTR will enable CFTR to send a clear message that the conservative values we share are alive and strong in America. And remember as a special thank you for a donation of $75 or more I will send you a copy of my documentary Ronald Reagan: Rendezvous with Destiny. Our country needs your support to remain strong, free, and prosperous. Please make your generous contribution today! Thank you.
