3 issues that are most interesting to me and my positiion on them __High government taxes__ If the government keeps putting high taxes on the people, the people will have less money to spend everywhere else, thus hurting the economy. People will not be able to pay their mortgage and cant spend money at other companies so it hurts them too. If the government wants to rebuild the economy, they need to give it time and stop taxing so high.

__Helping businesses earn a profit__ If we help businesses earn a profit, then it will open new jobs. Poor people can get jobs from these businesses and will finally have a steady income. This will help poverty because poor people will finally get a chance to make a new life and get off the streets.

__Right to affordable health care__ People should not have a right to affordable health care because it will hurt the economy. American citizens pay taxes, and that money will go right from the government to other people. Its like your paying for someone elses health care. This should not be a law or a right for citizens.

I support my bill about prayer before sporting events because it will increase the respect for the United States. People will respect our country more because it will have more freedoms than it had before. More people and athletes might come here because of the new religous freedom.
