I love this regular post. It should be a primary starting point for our legislators.
The conservative should want to see that grow by understanding everything that makes this up, hinders efficiency or does not serve its citizens in some balance.
Tells of concern would be candidates that see only one thing “we need to cut taxes” or we need more “redistribution” to non-producers and special interests.
