Getting my feet wet.

Had a very pleasant Saturday, as I spent the afternoon meeting with a small group of Republicans and shaking the hand of Jim Renacci while at his headquarter in the heart of Wadsworth. I was very excited as he meet with us and other local people from the Medina and the Wadsworth area. This was a great opportunity for me to get my feet wet with local and state politics. It was a great encouragement as I meet a few people who are also on fire for this up-coming 2012 elections.

Finished my Saturday with dinner at BRAVO! and a little Shopping at Banana Republic with Mom and Andrea... Pure Bliss!

Movie Review: The Vow

What a beautiful heart warming movie about two people who fall madly in love, and suddenly their world is changed forever.


But I won't tell you anymore... I don't want to ruin it.



I will tell you that is has a happy ending.



One that every girl dreams of...

I mean a girl can dream can't she.

It's not Fracking its Hydraulic Fracturing

Hydraulic fracturing is a great opportunity for Ohio's economy and surprisingly its nothing new. Hydraulic fracturing started in 1953 in Ohio, but has been around for about 100 years.

Hydraulic fracturing is guaranteed to increases 50% because of our need for natural gas. If we truly want to be secure as a country and less dependent on foreign sources than this is the way to go! Our goal should be to start producing just as much as we use. Currently Ohio is only using 20% of their resources.

As for Ohio's economy hydraulic fracturing is looking to create close to 200.000 jobs! Talk about a major economy boost! Thanks to hydraulic fracturing our very own Youngstown steel mill which was left for dead is now being rebuilt .. creating jobs for Ohio. Steel mills are not the only job that are being created, construction workers, welders, CDL drivers and many other opportunities can be added to this list. This will not be just a short term economic boost but a long term economic boost for our generation and the coming generations.

A concern with hydraulic fracturing includes, refinery capacity, There are currently only two refineries located close to Ohio, Bradford PA and Newell, WV. According to the EIA there are only 148 refineries that operating in the USA.

Despite some of the concerns people might have and the haters from the liberal media, I am excited to see this energy boom pave a new and exciting way for Ohio's economy!

Maybe We Need Some Reaganomics..?

Reaganomics:
1. Reduce Government spending
2.Reduce income tax and capital gains tax
3. Reduce Government regulation of economy
4. Control money supply to reduce inflation

At my age, to many Americans tax is just a word, much like economy and economic is just a word. Many at my age don't even do their own taxes, or even pay attention to where the future of our economy is headed. They are still depending on their parents or their parents accountants to do it all for them. Thanks to my mom, Who had me do my own taxes, I began to do a little searching. A little search to try and find out what all this talk about taxes and economics is all about and what I should be wanting to see from my representative in Congress, Senate and Mr President while their in Washington. Well here is a little overview for those who have no clue as to what basic economics and taxes mean for our future as American citizens.

Government Spending, for all of you people who are living under a rock or in your parents basement, government spending is a big issue and you should be concerned. Our national debt is at a raising 15 trillion! Which means your children and grandchildren won't even know what its like to feel debt free. In this up-coming election we need to vote for someone who is going to take charge and make a step in the right direction, and cut government spending where we need it, not where we need it most! This is Reaganomics number 1. 

Taxes, lets just say that the current Internal Revenue Codes are a mess! (for those who don't know what IRC is there tax laws) As a American citizen we should be looking for tax cuts that will result in higher investment, lower unemployment and improve our economy as a whole. This is where Reaganomics 2 and 3 come into actions, Smaller Government would increase tax cuts. An effective tax reform such as that of one of flat tax could boost our nations wealth, by means of it increasing work, savings and investments. So start paying attention! What are the people you voted into office doing about cutting government spending? Are they supporting Obama's military cuts, and his wanting to raise taxes on the rich?!

Money supply...What money supply I ask?! Clearly we don't even have any money as Americans, if we repeatedly watch our government borrow from countries like China. Also let me inform if you haven't already heard a few months back we added Europe to the list along with the corporations that have been bailout by the US government! Now that the euro is collapsing where does that leave the US Federal Reserve?  We are printing money that has nothing to back it up! This leads to Reaganomics number 4. Ronald Reagan said himself  "Inflation is as violet as a mugger, as frightening as an armed robber and as deadly as a hit man."

Religious Freedom and Contraceptives

Three weeks ago President Obama announced that employers healthcare plans were to cover all forms of contraceptives. He stated that this would be a big help to many everyday working American woman, that were paying out of pocket for birth control.

I personally had a  problem with this. I became really discouraged the more I talked to people that I came into contact with that seemed to find no wrong with President Obama mandate.

What about religious freedom?
Amendment 1, of the Constitution of the United states of America states:
Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion. or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech or of the press; or the right of people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.

All employers health care will cover contraception. A employer with strong religious views, such as a church or a religious organization is suppose to feel good about offering this to there employees. The first amendment protects the right of religious groups from President Obama's contraceptive mandate.

Although President Obama has come out and said that religious groups with be exempt from this mandate, I believe this fight is not over. As a christian and a defender of our constitutional rights we need to keep our eyes and ears open for what is to come of our health care.
