Cain Brings Interesting Issues
In chatting the other day with folks at a local function I truthfully was amazed to hear so many people talking about Herman Cain.
In several of the most recent debates Cain has displayed the fact that he is a intelligent businessman and with lots of hands-on private sector experience.
The former pizza magnate and radio talk show host has been surging in the polls and I wanted to know what the folks were thinking.
Here is what some of the folks said about Cain:
1. He says the role of the federal government should be to encourage economic growth by ensuing conditions that will allow businesses to thrive.
2. He says the federal government should not be in the business of picking and choosing industries they support financially.
3. He says the American Dream has been attained by those who were willing to think, work and sacrifice to achieve it.
4. He notes that the federal government impedes growth by interfering in the employer and employee relationship.
5. His 9-9-9 plan includes a 9% business flat tax, an individual flat tax of 9% and a national sales tax of 9%. In simple terms it would scrap the current tax code and replace it with a 9 percent tax on corporations and personal income as well as a 9 percent national sales tax.
Also folks seem to like the fact that he does not show the traditional strategy of a serious White House Contender.
Those who like Cain say he is pushing a tax reform plan that's resonating with voters hungry for solutions.
Folks are saying Cain has a great likability.
It should be interesting to see how this all plays out.
