Northeast Gubernatorial Debate

[Jerseyrules]

I would rather not descend to personal attacks, nor will I question a candidate's love for this great nation and our great nation, though I believe that I have worked very hard in my short time in public office, and I appreciate certain aspects of what both candidates have done for our great region.  But I will say that I will strive for excellence if you put me behind that desk, as will the others, but that we differ greatly in our methods of reaching excellence.

I am merely bumping this.  Next debate will be next weekend?  This one can last till 11:59 pm Sunday, though with the upcoming Super Bowl I doubt a lot of posting will be done tomorrow.

Also, as your governor, I would fight the federal government and try to replace the Atlasian public healthcare system with market-based alternatives in order to cut costs.  I would spend my own money to bring this issue before the Supreme Court, but my primary goal would still be on tax and spending cuts, as well as getting the government off of the backs of the private sector.  I believe in lowering rates but also minimizing loopholes to simplify the tax code, which is so complex that many Northeasterners have to pay an attorney to do their taxes for them, which is a burden on the working class.  While deductions mean well, by the time they get their deductions almost all of it goes to the lawyer who spent hours, sometimes days doing the grueling process that we all loathe.

I think the voters have learned enough in this debate. I might be interested in a moderated debate but it needs discussed. By the way, are you running for regional assembly? Why won't you commit to running for one office as I have?

Because in the event that I do not win, I wish to continue my fight for liberty in this region and Atlasia.  If I am elected I will resign my seat in the assembly.  However, I will be honest, Senator, I believe you are avoiding the real issues.  I brought up the budget, the reform, spending, and taxes, yet you descend to this?  I believe Atlasians deserve more than that, Senator.

From my experience in this region, I have come to understand that such practice is frowned upon by many voters. To say it is not an issue is naive.
Debate is over, however.

I would like to invite you to debate again, next time with a moderator.
