The US continues to suffer economic difficulties stemming from the federal government's neglect to reform and reduce domestic and foreign spending. The citizens of the US suffer from blatant abuses of their rights such as the NDAA, the TSA, and the bureaucracies of the EPA, OSHA, and the Departments of Education, Agriculture, Commerce, Homeland Security, Health and Human Services, etc. Ohio's inherent economic strength, along with its substantial natural resources and access to sea lanes via the Great Lakes, are the suitable underpinnings to secure to our citizens the rights and freedoms as espoused by the Founders and described in the Declaration of Independence and the US Constitution.
