| Important Issues: | |
| America needs Ed Lindsay!
I am a fiscal conservative who supports individual rights, protection of Social Security and Medicare, balanced budgets, reduction of the Federal Debt and closing corporate loopholes. Corporations by law are "individuals" and should be treated as such with no special considerations. Your career congrssmen have allowed over 60 percent of American corporations to pay ZERO income taxes for several years now. It is no wonder that we have a $15 trillion debt. Social Security and Medicare are funded separately and should not be considered part of the general operating budget. I want to protect and preserve these programs for our Senior Citizens which they have earned and so richly deserve. Furthermore, I want to remove the Government Pension Offset that cheats Social Security recepients out of sixty percent of their earned Social Security income. Plus, I want to end the practice of taxing Social Security benefits for income tax purposes. I believe non-essential subsidies, like the $4 billion of taxpayers' money given to oil companies each year, need to be stopped. We cannot afford them and they don't need them. I want every American to have access to Health Care, tax credits for Clean Energy, and tax breaks for the Middle Class. I want a simplified tax code that is fair and equitable for all. Your congressmen have expanded the IRS TAX CODE to over 17,000 pages, filled with loopholes, due to career politicians catering to corporations and lobbyists. I want to hold Wall Street and Big Money interests accountable for their actions and to protect financial reform. I want to safeguard our borders and to educate the public on how to guard against terrorism. I intend to see that current laws regarding illegal immigration are enforced. I want to ensure Americans are not discriminated against based upon their race, religion, sex or gender orientation. I also want to stop sending our troops to war when Congress won't even issue a Declaration of War. The last time was WWII; and, yet, our men and women have died in wars in Korea, Vietnam, Iraq and Afghanistan. The U.S. should not be world's policeman, that's the job for the U.N. I want to stop Global Warming. The U.S., China, and India are the only countries to not sign the Global Warming Treaty. And now Canada recently withdrew from the Treaty. I have a plan which will bring peace in the Middle East. Finally, I support term limits for ALL politicians. It's the only way that Americans will regain their voice in their Government. As it is now, career politicians represent their big backers and not the majority of Americans. Until then, the only time the majority of Americans are heard is on Election Day! BE AMERICAN -- BUY AMERICAN -- SAVE AMERICA -- SUPPORT ED LINDSAY | |
| Why Vote For Ed Lindsay: | |
| It is important to preserve our Democracy and to deprive special interests of stealing our representation in Congress. Career politicians have stubbornly followed failed economic policies and are tied to special interests, not to the American people. Neither Republicans nor Democrats are doing what is best for our country. All we get from them is campaign rhetoric and it's time for this practice to stop.
I do not consider myself to be a politician. Rather, I am a statesman whose only interest is doing what is best for my country and for my fellow countrymen. If you want REAL CHANGE in government, if you want to stop the nonsense in Washington, DC, if you want our government placed on a sound financial basis, if you want to see ethics restored in the political arena, and if you want to see the future of this country preserved for you, your children and your grandchildren, then it is imperative that YOU OFFER YOUR SUPPORT! | |
