"Ultimately having confidence in liberty is really about having confidence in people. Confidence that people will do what is right when given the opportunity." --Jake Dettinger Speech at Olmsted County Convention |
What is Principled Practical Progress? I understand that good ideas do not always make good laws. Principled Practical Progress is the foundation I will use to guide my decision-making as a representative, and it is also a commitment I make to the people of 30A. Step 1: Principled I will first use the principles of personal liberty and the power of the free market to guide my decisions first. I believe in putting people-- not government-- in charge of the property and money. Step 2: Practical I will make sure that any measures that the government takes are practical in implementation, do not mortgage our future, and will not result in growth in spending. I will use my practical experience as a business and property owner to only spend within our means . Step 3: Progress Reducing spending, better tax policies, and better value in health care and education are specific areas where we need to make progress. I will make sure that we are making true progress in the right direction, and not just going through the motions without effecting change. |
