How would you describe yourself to voters?

Level headed team player.

What do you see as the top issues in this campaign?

Legalizing gold, silver, cryptocurrency as legal tender. Creating victory gardens in the communities and encourage people to start their own in the midst of food shortages. Removing outdated regulations that harm our community.

In your opinion, how would you rate the state’s response to the pandemic? Why?

Very poor. The extorted small business if they didn’t follow mandates by fining them and threatening them to remove their business licenses. That is economic warfare and infringement of state constitutional rights. Many small businesses were lost because of these poor decisions.

Education and local government officials have long asked lawmakers to change the way the state assesses property taxes. That includes raising the current tax threshold. Should lawmakers consider raising those thresholds? If not, what is the best way for governments to raise money for local programs?

No to raising taxes on the community. I’m in favor of taking back the land we loaned from the federal government and taxing them for using our land to fund community projects.
