The prosperity and industriousness of the people is being smothered by taxation and regulation. It's affecting everything from health care to energy production. An overbearing and over-bloated government limits the people's ability and incentive to produce, stifling the economy.
The best way to stimulate our economy is to get the government off our backs and out of our wallets. Idaho can become the freest and most prosperous state in the Union by reviving the principles that made America the freest and most prosperous nation on earth.
We need to unleash the free market economic engine in Idaho! Freedom releases the ingenuity and productivity of individuals and families, and has resulted in unprecedented advances in the common standard of living.
Low taxes and free markets would:
- provide incentive for local entrepreneurs
- stimulate industry and economic growth
- revitalize our local economy
- stabilize Idaho's economy
- insulate us from national and global economic woes
Idaho should be a land of opportunity so we can all enjoy a more secure future. We can set an example for the nation and the world. We can reignite the American dream!

You are so very, very right! Even as you speak of freeing the economy, some of our counties, at the urging of the state are preparing draconian land use plans that will further regulate and restrict the citizens and how they may use their own property to earn a living. Why should a person need a conditional use permit to raise animals for profit on their own property? How much will it cost to enforce these overbearing regulations? How badly will it devalue the property that we purchased in good faith to own and use whatever responsible manner we choose? Why are these plans being made so quietly and why can they be implemented without a vote by the people who will be affected? How many home businesses will be destroyed? Who appointed these planning and zoning commissions and gave them the power of God over people's lives? How can we shine a light on what is being done to us in the dark, behind our backs, while there is still time to fight it?
