Dr. Gosar:
First, let me get this out of the way. I've been contacting your office from the beginning of your term in Congress. I am not a "member" of the "Tea Party" (whatever that means); nor am I a liberal, a moderate, or an extreme "right winger" (whatever that means). When I've contacted you, you've always been very courteous and prompt with your reply. I appreciate that immensely. That is one thing I liked about your predecessor, Ms. Kirkpatrick.
I think I'm a reasonable person - not a crank, not a conspiracy theorist, not a nut job. And I think that I think pretty well. I can see patterns and predict outcomes - especially on a macro level, such as US or World History.
When I asked you not to support the Boehner Compromise (whatever that means) it was not because I'd been drinking the Kool-Aid at the local Tea Party. It was because EVERY SINGLE TIME our government has sought to "rescue" our economy it's turned into a financial nightmare. Have your staff look at what the DJIA did after Stimulus I, TARP, Stimulus II. Have them look at what happened after every intervention during the Great Depression. The current market free-fall was predictable.
And I suppose I'm not the only one smart enough to have seen it. If I'd been significantly invested in the market, I could have seen this coming and made a FORTUNE by taking a short position - essentially betting against the country.
So, I need to know what possessed you to support the plan?
I can only imagine the pressure Speaker Boehner can bring to bear on an individual....
But I digress.
Please let me know why you supported the bill.
Respectfully,
John N. Ellis
