Dwight Grotberg on Budget & Economy
|
We need solid fiscal policy for coming economic expansion
Q: What problems do you think North Dakota faces today that you can address from the Senate? A: Our economy is poised to dramatically expand. Without solid fiscal policy and new ideas to support industry, we will either miss the boat or we will be
susceptible to the boom-bust cycles of the past. Agriculture faces threats from over-reaching environmentalism. Other issues are Social Security, health care, and education.

Federal support should be rarely needed
Q: What is your philosophy on government spending? A: Washington wastes a lot of money. I have a plan to increase the support for our state that is backed up by a strong economic plan so that federal support is rarely needed.
Federal transfers should be an insurance policy, not the backbone of our economy.
