Government & Business

Ed believes that government is frequently out of touch with the conservative principles of Missouri. He knows that our communities will grow and flourish when the farmer and small business person are free to operate without unreasonable restrictions. Too many in government have either misunderstood or opposed the American spirit of independence. They have replaced independenc e with dependence as the American way. Government must provide opportunity, not handouts. Business and workers, not government programs, are the key to a sound future.
