You have six of the ten wealthiest counties in America surround Washington, D.C., and the poor and middle class are getting squeezed while people at the top and people with influence in government seem always to be doing better.

Do we want more of the same regulatory mission creep that has helped to harm America's poor and middle class? Do we want more of the policies that have stifled growth? Or do we want something else, something different, something that focuses on the need to reevaluate the size, the scope, the cost, the reach of the federal government?

We've got tax and regulatory policies in this country that are driving a lot of businesses overseas, and so I think there's a lot that we can do using principles of constitutionally limited government to help address people who share these concerns.
