Issue Position: Promoting Free Enterprise

Issue Position

I will look for ways to re-open markets in areas where Austin has said government knows better than Texans. I agree with Milton Friedman who said, "Many people want the government to protect the consumer. A much more urgent problem is to protect the consumer from the government."I believe in the freedom to take risks. Markets should be largely free from government interference. Austin shouldn't be the one to tell East Texans whether we will pay a certain price for a certain product. People know how to compare prices and quality. When people are free to choose, markets respond favorably.
