Rubio on the Stimulus's First Anniversary

Kathryn Jean Lopez
The Corner

<<< A year ago, the American people needed policies that would promote fiscal restraint and private sector job creation. Instead, Democrats and willing allies like Charlie Crist embarked on an era of failed stimulus spending that has seen unemployment rise, the government grow, a heavier debt burden placed on my children’s generation, and business uncertainty persist in the face of hostile big government policies.

A year into the stimulus, it’s abundantly clear this policy has failed the American people. Even worse, I continue to be alarmed by the decisions being made in Washington and the current direction of our country. An agenda that began with a $787 billion expansion of government has continued to promote even more threatening policies like a government takeover of health care, cap-and-trade and punishing new taxes.

A year ago, Charlie Crist had a chance to join Republicans in working towards market-based solutions that empower businesses and entrepreneurs to invest in their ideas and create jobs. Instead, he embraced and advocated a policy that has been a roadblock to job creation and threatened our country’s long term economic health.

Floridians deserve leaders willing to go to Washington and offer a clear alternative to the current agenda being offered. Throughout my career and this campaign, I have proven I will be a voice for limited government principles. Charlie Crist’s embrace of the stimulus, cap-and-trade and higher taxes prove he would go from being Barack Obama’s favorite Republican governor to his favorite Republican senator. >>>
