Why I voted for Mitt Romney

Romney has the ability to make tough decisions that will move our country toward a balanced budget in the next several years. I say several years because the current deficit is such that it will take several years to overcome it. He will insist that Congress and the Senate pass a budget so that we as a nation can get a handle on spending and taxation. Romney recognizes that we do not have a tax problem, but rather a spending problem. He and Paul Ryan know how to budget for essentials and eliminate those things that are not essentials and can differentiate between the two. Some of the decisions they will have to make will be painful to our country and us citizens; however, they will be necessary.

Romney cares about all American citizens and wants to see our country thrive and prosper. He has a great business background and knows how to run both large and small businesses so they can turn a profit. After all, isn’t our national government arguably the largest business in the world? Wouldn’t it only be logical to have a good businessman in charge of such a large business? In any successful business, there are times when hard decisions must be made to keep the business solvent. Romney has the ability to make those decisions in a way that will ensure the success of the business and ultimately lead to more jobs for those who seek them.

Romney is committed to the repeal of the Affordable Care Act, which contains significant increases in costs for employers and every American, whether they are paying for health care or not. Those costs must increase under the Affordable Care Act when it covers millions of additional people who currently are not covered — many of whom are not and will not be paying into the system — but still will use the health care system in our country.
