Call to Action! Obama and Kind Destroying our Nation

In light of recent statements by the Treasury Department and Ron Kind, Michael Krsiean has this to say regarding our current rate of spending and our debt levels, “As Ron Kind praises Obama’s budget Feb 2nd by saying, "This budget does exactly what we need it to do right now, takes the steps to help the economy recover, creates jobs and helps get Americans back to work," we are poised to raise the federal debt ceiling from $12.39 trillion to $14.3 trillion.

At the current rate of spending Mr. Kind and Obama advocate, the US Treasury declares we will reach the $14.3 trillion level by the end of this month!! That is 15.4% increase in just 28 days. We’ll pass this level before the House can approve it! With compound interest this rate of borrowing will go up exponentially. This during a time when they are telling us the economy is good. When it’s bad do we increase the debt 30% every month?

STOP THIS MADNESS! I call on our current high profile 3rd district professional politicians Ron Kind and Dan Kapanke to call for IMMEDIATE and deep cuts to spending before we hit a point of no return where we will not be able to make payments on our debt.

We are currently borrowing $68 BILLION a day for Ron to run around the district sprinkling about the fraction of our money that makes it back to us! If they keep this up our economy’s life expectancy is measured in months.

It is this type of irresponsible spending and borrowing that Ron Kind supports in spite of his ‘fiscal responsibility’ initiatives. Dan Kapanke advocates the status quo and the word ‘CUT’ isn’t in his vocabulary. Michael Krsiean has spoken out boldly for the need for deep cuts and department eliminations in our federal government; returning it to a size more representative of that which the founding fathers had in mind. Significant change is needed immediately! This is happening on their watch.”

Congratulations to Kapanke for Publishing Stances

In reference to Dan Kapanke finally officially publishing his political stances, Michael Krsiean has this to say, “I congratulate Dan on finally, after half a year into the campaign, being able to commit to positions and publically put them to the written word on his website.

As I read through Dan’s positions I am pleased to note that the citizens of the 3rd district will have very different candidates from which to choose their next Representative.

While Dan seems to have a hard time using the words ‘cut’, ‘defund’ and ‘dismantle’ in regards to the hugely overgrown federal government bureaucracy, those words are part of Mike Krsiean’s main objective declarations and commitments in running for this US House office. It is nice to see Dan follow my lead in developing a more and more fiscally conservative approach to his campaign, but more fiscally conservative development is needed….after all, he is a conservative, right?

I note Dan declares he won’t increase taxes in these hard economic times. I say we need to REDUCE spending and taxes in bad AND good times. Dan declares he wants to “Address the pending return of the Death Tax to 2001 levels” whatever that means, while I want to eliminate it. Dan wants to stop increasing the ceiling for debt. I want to decrease and then eliminate it. Dan wants to massage and keep the IRS, I want to slash spending and get the IRS out of our lives by going to a citizen controlled sales tax (FAIRTAX) with its prebate feature. Dan wants to “Reject Cap and Trade proposals that target farmers.” I want to reject Cap and Trade IN ITS ENTIRETY. And for the kicker, regarding healthcare reform Dan, like Ron Kind declares “Reform should target outcomes, not reward inputs that drive up costs”, thereby Dan sets the stage for government quality measures of physicians and government meddling between a doctor and the patient.

When it comes down to it, Dan is really continuing to advocate for unconstitutional and unacceptable levels of government intrusion into our lives.
