The No.1 issue in our region and our nation today is how to recharge our economy and get more people working in good-paying jobs.
President Barack Obama has had four years to overcome the job losses of the Great Recession he inherited, but the recovery has been too slow and too weak. Its time for new leadership from Mitt Romney, a governor and business leader with a record of solving problems.
Romneys experience as a chief executive, business leader and governor position him to be the best candidate to lead us into a new era of streamlined but effective government with a renewed focus on maintaining America as the worlds leading economy.
The bottom line: He erased the deficit in Massachusetts (which was required by state law) and left office with a $600 million surplus. He replenished the states reserve fund two years into his term, pushing it to $2 billion by the time he left office in 2007.
Romneys plans for recovery revolve around the economic principles of reducing government regulation, cutting corporate taxes and opening more global markets. Its an approach consistent with who Mitt Romney is a businessman and a moderate conservative who doesnt believe so much in governments making things happen as he does in lifting government interference so they can happen.
