“You shall reap what you sow.” Elect people who won’t do anything about the problems, and nothing will be done about the problems, and least not by those so elected.
Jon Ossoff, the incumbent, is an intelligent and (from what I can tell) good man. I once attended a speech he gave in Cobb County, shortly after he was elected. I recall him saying his job was (solely) to help people in Georgia get their local needs met. I don’t recall him mentioning any other purpose. While helping people is good, I think healthy people need to take care of themselves. Helping with a local need can potentially be part of the job. He has not drafted or supported bills dealing with the major issues discussed on this website. Thus, it’s unlikely that he’ll ever do so.
The Republican candidate, whoever it might turn out to be, will be a MAGA candidate. That person will be a live for today (i.e., prosperity now/don’t consider the future) Trump loyalist. My list of Trump pros and cons follows, along with an article by former Treasury Secretary Rubin regarding the Trump Administration.
I think the job of an effective United States senator is much more difficult than the major party candidates see it. I believe we need to head back towards our roots, in terms of personal responsibility and reliance on self and family. Our financial problems are our largest problems and, unlike the two major party candidates, I propose workable solutions thereto. I think government is meant to be a means of doing things together as a country that we cannot practically do personally, with annual funding (through taxes) to cover the annual costs. While the nation basically started that way, it has moved drastically and dangerously away from it. Debt should only be incurred with respect to major unanticipated events, and then should always be a workable amount (unlike as is now—we now spend more on interest than we do on our military). Interest expense is expected to increase tremendously in the near future.
Why vote for me, or anyone outside the two major parties in general? Because the system does not work from a financial perspective with either of the two major parties. It’s headed for a financial collapse. The only way to prevent such is to go outside them. And a large part of the reason they can’t get anything done is they’ve both sold out to special interest groups. Consider health care. Both have sold out to providers and insurers. So, nothing significant can or does get done. If the barrel only has bad apples, one must look outside the barrel to possibly find a good apple.
