9) In 50 words or less, what's the first thing the new Congress should do to improve the economy?
Congress must immediately refrain from creating large spend-intensive projects where the economy can't support them. We must trim at times like this, just like decisions we make at home when money's tight. Corruption, I'm afraid, is causing a lot of this activity.
10) In 50 words or less, what's the biggest threat facing the country today?
Forces inside and out, who know that if America's freedom falls, the world's beacon of freedom will exist no longer, and the world, including us, would suffer immeasurably. The forces are economic, moral, physical, and real time. Wake up, America!
