Teresa Sue Bratton - The Economy
Teresa Sue Bratton, MD, says its time for a change in Washington.
George Bush has created policies that send well-paying jobs overseas, along with our tax base. It's time to create policies that encourage corporations to bring well-paying jobs back home.
Dr. Bratton supports:
- Increasing minimum wage to a living wage.
- Supporting our community colleges in re-educating the workforce.
- Encouraging small business growth and entrepreneurship.
- Creating new jobs to develop renewable energy resources.
"Prices are rising every day for fuel and food - two basic necessities. Families are struggling to get by as expenses rise and job security sinks. It's time for a change in policies that are designed to help our nation's economic recovery. It's time to encourage economic policy in this country that creates home grown wealth and a stronger tax base. Providing incentives to expand the supply of renewable energy resources is one good way to do this." according to Bratton.
