Indiana doesn't need to attract more out-of-state corporations to reinvigorate the economy. Indiana needs lower taxes and less regulation on small business, so we can encourage new Hoosier small business startup and growth. Hoosiers aren't worker-bees for Chinese corporations.

So many of our local, state, and federal government policies punish the family farmer, small business owner, and independent freelance, or gig, worker today.  It seems like government tax policy, business regulations, monetary policy, and insurance regulations are stacked against
