Texas Governor Rick Perry appeared on Fox business this morning to talk about the economic success that Texans have experienced with his low tax and sensible regulatory policies under his leadership. One of the amazing revelations is that Texas has now become the number one exporter of American electronic technology products. The Governor acknowledged that California’s Silicon Valley remains the leader in technological innovation but that Texas now does more of the manufacturing and exporting of products. Manufacturing is returning to Texas in part because of the way the government has streamlined the regulatory process. When companies know what is expected and can get their permits withing weeks rather than months or years and when they realize that Texas intends to be supportive and responsive to business needs they come back to America and Texas. In fact the governor was quite positive about the future of manufacturing in his state siting taxes and regulations but also the strides the state has made in preparing young people for work in manufacturing.
The Governor also said the best thing President Obama could do immediately to jump start the economy and create jobs would be to build the Keystone Pipeline and open the nation to production and export of energy products. Many believe the President will do just that…probably just before the election later this summer.
Both President Obama and Governor Brown of California would be wise to take a lesson from the many Republican governors that have created more favorable economic conditions for the citizens of their states. Invariably lower taxes and a reasonable regulatory process inspire greater economic activity and lower unemployment rates.
Imagine what American’s could do if only our government would just make a few simple adjustments and get out of the way! Imagine, America feeling like winners again! Imagine the excitement of a growing economy, an abundance of good jobs, and prosperity for working Americans again! Texas is one state that has shown the way.
In the last few years, while America’s attention has been focused on everything from the Facebook IPO, Miley Cyrus’ twerking and the Olympics, something special has been happening in Ohio.
Ohio? Say what?
In economic terms, what’s been happening in Ohio has been hailed by some as the “Ohio miracle.” That’s because, the state’s governor, former Congressman John Kasich is doing for Ohio what he did for America in the late 1990s when he was the last man to balance the federal budget as the chief architect of the Balanced Budget Act of 1997.
Now people are talking 2016, and with good reason.
Maybe we need to give Obammie credit.
Apparently he is quite a fisherman…or fisherperson to be politically correct….
