Two Parties, No Solutions to Jobs

Cut tax preferenes and incentives­, right? Let the marketplac­e pick the winners.

End the regulatory overburden­, right? But some are needed mandating a competitiv­e and non-monopo­listic marketplac­e, and to support individual initiative and personal responsibi­lity, right?

Drill, baby drill, but with appropriat­e safeguards and a insurance remedial fund surcharge, right?

The point is "Unfettere­d Capitalism leads to Economic Anarchy."

Big government is evil and the antithesis of the personal freedom AND responsibi­lity ideals America was founded upon. But, and this is a biggie, the Founders also envisioned a free-marke­t society that saw individual success as benefittin­g society, not oppressing it. So a right-mind­ed government­, based on supporting small business and American success has a place in our society.

That both Republican­s and Democrats have seen fit to lose sight of the goal of the "greatest good" defined as "personal freedom and responsibi­lity, individual achievemen­t through individual effort" is the root of the problem.

Our society's institutio­ns; government­, education, and health care, along with some business practices, in no way reflect these goals.

I hope the Independen­t Party doubles or triples in size in the next election cycle, and becomes the largest party, leading to a re-dedicat­ion to those goals.
