InfoPresident Ronald Reagan appointed me to Chair the National Capital Planning Commission, so I was privileged to have a great inside view of the "Reagan Revolution." As serious as the "clear and present danger" was from Soviet missiles in the Reagan years, America now faces a greater enemy, national "Debt Slavery." As many have lost control of their personal destiny to debt, so too America is in danger of losing its sovereign ability to defend our way of life. We simply must cut spending, and reduce our debt, and we must cut taxes and regulations to unloose businesses to create JOBS, and restart prosperity. I want to rally people to fight governments' addiction to debt. I think my decades of debt and cost cutting experience will help. Our children and grandchildren need us to meet this test. Why should they be the first generation to accept a lower living standard than their parents?
