Smitten on Mitt (Post 1: Media Techniques)



    In a nation ill to healthcare, and troubled by the economy, one citizen rises to the challenge. Armed only with a cape of capitalism and a thirst for liberty, Mitt Romney takes his inspiring campaign to the presidential election, With his warm heart and cold sweat, Romney is out to put his two cents in on the economy, and bandage the American healthcare system. And you can help.

   In most medical procedures, the first step is to figure out what to remove.  Just as a nurse may clean a wound, Romney’s plan begins with a cleansing; out with the old, in with the new. The repeal of Obamacare will get rid of the failed system of his predecessor. This will eliminate 2,400 pages of convoluted policy, as well as remove the 500 billion dollars in tax increases that this policy created. Once the eradication is complete, Romney will begin his operation; he will repair and modify American healthcare to its best and brightest. His plan relies on giving individual states the power to determine their own healthcare plans, while keeping the federal government in charge of keeping the playing field level. This division of power is an American fundamental. It is inspired by the documents that guide our great nation, and therefore will enhance our continuation towards ongoing greatness. Mitt Romney’s healthcare plan also adds incentives for innovation, help for people who are uninsured or often sick, as well as empower individuals with the opportunities to rise to their own individual success.

   Economically, Mitt Romney has his priorities straight. He strives for a smaller, smarter government; He wants loosened regulation to help business owners. He advocated for a more open market, one that challenges competition and drive improvement. Romney knows that these ideas are key to a strong economy because of his years of experience in the private sector and his studies at Harvard Business school. These are not what directly improves the economy, these are what drives individuals to improve their lives as citizens, as consumers, and as business owners to ensure a stronger economy.
