Reducing the Size of Government

Sun, 02/14/2010 - 10:52 — paullaz

There has been a lot of talk recently about fiscal responsibility, but most of the talk has been meaningless rhetoric. While it has taken many years to get where we are, it will also take many years to undo the intrusions, waste, and burdens of our federal government.

The continuous confiscation of citizen resources through taxation to distribute to others not only hurts the average person, but continues to put a drain on our economic solvency. Our current representatives and administration seem to believe taking money from working people to subsidize others lifestyle is in the greater good. They want you to believe that they wish to take from the "wealthiest" to give to the poor. The reality is they are taking from everyone to support their agenda. In effect buying votes to sustain themselves and their "friends".

I advocate disbanding or shrinking drastically the following departments which provide little or no return to the hard working, taxpaying citizens:

Response to the CALM Act (H.R. 1084) - Censorship!

Thu, 01/14/2010 - 20:04 — paullaz

The CALM Act (Commercial Advertisement Loudness Mitigation) drafted by Anna Eshoo, my presumed upcoming opponent, and passed last month highlight what she thinks if of high importance to the citizens of her district and country. This bill, from what is mentioned in her own statement, (http://eshoo.house.gov/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=695&Ite...) "The CALM Act is an easy fix for a tremendous nuisance. In my 17 years in the House of Representatives, I've never carried a bill which has been received with so much enthusiasm by people across the country,", appears to be the highlight of her career on Capitol Hill.

There are several problems I see from this bill:

  • It becomes a slippery slope into censorship.
  • This restriction on private enterprise steps outside the bounds of the Constitutional powers of Congress.
  • Isn't there something better for Congress to worry about?
