Well obviously are you had a great track record and a let's talk a little more about the national economy.

Something we cover here a lot on the show right now it.

36 out of 38 economists saying that they oppose any further efforts by the Fed to invigorate growth and as you know the Federal Reserve -- very.

Involved in what's been going on with the economy should the Fed do more.

Don't help us anymore -- they are.

This is that it did this really isn't high level economics from my.

That this is this is some pretty simple.

Applications that need to happen in this country and -- -- we we don't need bunch of -- highly trained economic.

Ph.D.s.

Tell in this country had to get back.

But we need to do is cut the spending.

Lower the taxes have a regulatory climate that is fair predictable.

Have a legal system doesn't allow for over suing him and a lot of that needs to happen at the state level as well.

But the feds need to get out.

Tell us how to.

-- energy.

How to protect our own environment for our people.

How to -- children for instance the Fed's are spending way too much time trying to tell us how to do things they constitutionally they're not even supposed to be -- I'd like for them to defend our borders first.

Then making come and have any more conversations with a company's sound a whole lot like presidential candidate will -- -- one.

I'm given it some thought right now and hopefully in the in the not too distant future will have a definitive answer.

You know I think there's a lot of people who agree with you how you diagnose the problems and you can see it in the polling.

Americans say that they think congress does allow for job for example I think their approval ratings are in the single digits.

-- -- -- -- Well.

You look at.

Congress' track record over the last.

Decade or two and then there's pretty good reason for people say wait a minute you spent all this money.

-- you had this big TARP bailout.

And then -- started stimulating us.

And all of that hasn't done anything except create a monstrous debt for our kids mean a fourteen trillion dollar debt.

One point 31 point -- created over the last.

Twelve to fifteen months.

And people look at that -- what are you doing.

They know that is not.

-- they know what's -- right and they know it's not gonna stimulate anything.

-- except more.

Heartburn and spending is gonna go up obamacare coming into play.

More taxes for more Americans more taxes for business operators what do you think of obamacare well.

The first thing that the new president of the new congress needs to -- is -- is abolish that repeal obamacare.

And then allow the states to compete.

Really get out there that I had probably should.

The the Oklahoma and New Mexico.

Ohio.

Rick Scott -- in Florida for instance Munis or some brilliant governors who have had.

A lot of experience in the health care side of things for instance.

Allow them to put programs -- place will go pick and choose -- promise you if Susanna Martinez over New Mexico puts.

A plan into place that I think will will serve well in Texas will go pick that up and implement our state a -- be.

But every state is different.

The idea that you can make one size fits all health care.

Is nonsense all we know about Obama -- is it will cost Texans over the next ten years if it's implemented almost thirty billion dollars more.

That will bankrupt and you I think we're not successful state -- the nation can you -- now after having not you've been having budget difficulties you can't it will bankrupt.

Even a status is strong economically as text -- governor thanks for coming -- -- we -- -- -- -- that when you make your investment.
