The foundations of our nation’s strength are a love of liberty and a pioneering spirit of innovation and creativity. These values—inherited from our Founders and embodied by all who came to our shores seeking opportunity—have made the United States the most powerful nation in the history of the world. But today, under President Obama’s leadership, Washington is smothering these values at home and sapping our influence abroad. The federal government has grown too large. And President Obama has presided over one of the worst economies in modern history—millions of jobs have been lost, record numbers of Americans are in danger of losing their homes, and personal bankruptcies have skyrocketed. He has failed the American people.
Mitt Romney believes in America. He believes that liberty, opportunity, and free enterprise have led to prosperity and strength before and will do so again. America, however, must take decisive action to roll back the misguided policies of the last three years, empower our citizens, and restore the foundations of our nation’s strength.
Thanks,
Mitt

Mitt Romney has proposed a solid economic plan. It’s not as bold as Newt’s, Cain’s, or Paul’s, but it’s definitely conservative and would greatly improve our economy. Here’s a summary of it:
* Eliminate the death tax.
* Eliminate taxes on capital gains, dividends, and interest for all taxpayers who earn less than $200K.
* Cut non-security discretionary spending by 5% in the first 90 days (he would propose this on day one of his presidency).
* Reduce the corporate tax rate to 25% (which would be a cut of over 25%).
* Rollback the growth of the federal government and put a cap on the size of the federal budget in relation to GDP.
* Drill here, drill now.
* Consolidate federal job training/retraining programs.
* Review all federal regulations for cost-effectiveness.
* Repeal Dodd-Frank.
Again, Romney’s plan is not as bold or sweeping as the plans put forward by Newt, Cain, and Paul, but it’s a solid, credible, and conservative plan that would be a huge step in the right direction.
