What Lies Ahead For Congress
By: Doug Busselman, Executive Vice President
Living in Reno doesn’t put me on the front-line of what’s going on in the Nation’s Capital, but thanks to the Internet and connections with the nation’s largest general farm organization, I can get as close to the stuff bubbling back on the other side of the Potomac as I would ever want. I also enjoy reading the insights offered by those who are on the other end of the philosophic spectrum to see what they think is coming.
Joe Rothstein certainly fits into the category of someone who doesn’t see the world as being as the way I think it ought to be, although I do get a lot from reading his columns on a regular basis. This recent piece brings into focus a very plausible agenda that those “representing” us will be looking to legislatively navigate over the coming months. It also puts into context the work that we have before us in responding to the wide variety of matters that will further seek to expand government’s scope and continue to weaken our ability in the private sector to maintain opportunities.
At best we will continue to increase our resolve for building effective grassroots organizations capable of taking back the steering wheel of power, replacing big-government champions with those who believe in appropriate limits for federal intrusion.
