There is a growing economic inequality that does not bode well for our state or our nation. We are becoming a two-tiered society which has planted the seeds of future turmoil. We must equalize the economic playing field which must once again give laboring men and women power and decent wages in the workplace. I will offer an agenda to that end. Children are in great peril in America today.
Families are economically and emotionally strained.
The young are subjected to destructive messages of sex, drugs, violence, and deviant behavior that make growing up today a road littered with negative obstacles. We urgently need to change that. While American business has transformed itself to be the most productive in the world state government has not. I will offer plans for managing our public offices and institutions to bring about high quality service, greater productivity, and greater respect and reward for the many fine men and women who work in public institutions. Similar reforms must be enacted in our political system regarding election processes, and most importantly, in reforming the way we finance political campaigns.
