Re: Economist for Romney
Mod CommenT: members should provide something to discuss other than a link or a one line comment. This is an overall requirement of the PatsFans. com forums.

From the main forum:
New Forum Guidelines - **Please Read Before Starting a New Thread**
Please create a thread people can actually participate in – Wondering what we mean by that? We have no issue with you criticizing a coach or a player. But if you do, please be sure to explain your point and why you feel that way, and offer some input as to what you like, or what you don't like and why. Please don’t start a thread about a coach or player that has just a sentence of two saying someone stinks and should be gotten rid of. That makes it hard for everyone to see your view of things unless we really understand why you feel the way you do. Who knows - you may find you have plenty of others who agree with you.

Applying these principles, Governor Romney would:
- Reduce marginal tax rates on business and wage incomes and broaden the tax base to increase investment, jobs, and living standards.
- End the exploding federal debt by controlling the growth of spending so federal spending does not exceed 20 percent of the economy.
- Restructure regulation to end “too big to fail,” improve credit availability to entrepreneurs and small businesses, and increase regulatory accountability, and ensure that all regulations pass rigorous benefit-cost tests.
- Improve our Social Security and Medicare programs by reducing their growth to sustainable levels, ensuring their viability over the long term, and protecting those in or near retirement.
- Reform our healthcare system to harness market forces and thereby reduce costs and increase quality, empowering patients and doctors, rather than the federal bureaucracy.
- Promote energy policies that increase domestic production, enlarge the use of all western hemisphere resources, encourage the use of new technologies, end wasteful subsidies, and rely more on market forces and less on government planners.
