If we want our state to grow and thrive, we must stop thinking only about cutting spending and being a cheap place to live and start thinking about investing in our communities and children. I’m so tired of the constant talk of tax cuts, the need to stop ‘overspending’, etc. when our education system in Indiana is one of the worst in the country and our K-12 teachers are paid worse now than they were in 2002 (inflation adjusted). You can see this clearly in this chart by noted conservative economist Michael Hicks – https://twitter.com/HicksCBER/status/1700202995072348174
How is our state supposed to compete in the future if all we do is give $200 tax refunds back to people and act like we did something worth celebrating? Out of all the candidates, the only one that seems to be interested in actually DOING anything for the state’s future is Doden. He at least has policy papers on his website and is focused on investing in our smaller communities and education system. Outside of Doden, we have gubernatorial candidates opining on federal matters every time they speak – I ask them as a Hoosier – what are your priorities?
If our state has any sense, it will begin investing in its future and move away from policies that thwart our state’s ability to compete now and into the future.
Love him or hate him, Eric Doden is the only candidate who offers a change from the status quo in state GOP leadership.
Make ALL the candidates clearly spell out and write down their plans for Indiana. How else can we tell what we’re getting with our vote?
Hire Brad Chambers
Yes, it seems to me Chambers is the one talking about growth strategies and public investment, and not about more tax cuts and less state spending.
We are getting the schools and environmental protection and roads that we’re paying for…all of them substandard. The best public schools in Indiana can’t hold a candle to the best public schools nationwide. Our roads are a laughingstock. And IDEM seems to be a wholly owned subsidiary of the extraction and polluting industries, including agriculture.
Vote for the candidate that can’t be bought by special interest!
What a clown show
