From the last GOP Presidential defeat; The Growth & Opportunity Project has released its recommendations.

Check them out and let me know what you think.

In your opinion, did the GOP take these recommendations or not?

No, they didn't listen. They're off message and not inclusive. --As far as I read.

I'd be more than happy to listen to anyone, Republican, Democrat or Others on Investments in America.

Why do I call it Investments in America, because that's the Job of The American Government.

I don't expect IBM, GE or Apple to build, maintain or invest the American Infrastructure, Child Welfare, Education anymore than I expect them to build, maintain or invest in our Military.

I don't care about emails or Woman's faces or building walls.

We spend generously on education.

Spending generously is not called an investment.

Anyone can spend generously, that doesn't mean you're getting what you pay for.

Example; we've been giving Tax breaks to the few rich for years ... what have you gotten for it?

The government as business metaphor is nonsense.

Or every welfare program, stimulus package, pork spending, etc....

You have some hope left in you. :smiley:

You've changed topics from Growth and Opportunity for the GOP. Didn't you read it?

That's true. We're not getting what we pay for but then why are black kids wasting their time and our money? .

I was responding you your post in #2

In other words, I'm sharing what I'm looking for in a candidate.

The GOP doesn't have to reach out to me, just not disrespect me ... like a few other morons on this forum.

Remember, you are the one who insisted on engagement in topics, now all you need to do is read a few responses from those who don't.

My post concerned the report. You went off topic. Hard habit to break?

Ok ... from what I read, they still didn't cover the things I care about.

Better? :grin:

Then why start a thread on a topic you have no interest in?
