J.W. Stables (Candidate for House District 136) Talks to Houston Business Connections: Tells Publisher Aubrey R. Taylor why Harris County voters should choose him in the Nov. 7, 2006, General Election STABLES: "As a State Representative, my priorities can be summarized in 3 main points: I would like to see Smaller Government Making government leaner, eliminating taxes, rolling back and eliminating eminent domain powers, eliminating corporate welfare. The government should do less things and do them well...if it proves it can not do them well it should not do them at all. I would focus on Energy and Business Utility bills are outrageous. Unlike my opponents in tight with the retail utilities, I would work to overhaul utility regulation that would force public utilities to recalculate their regulated retail rates on a monthly or quarterly instead of an annual basis. Let energy market speculators wear the risk of volatile energy markets, not our families and small business owners. I would place great emphasis on Education Funding, management of schools and facilities...all need new attention combined with a fresh market approach, something beyond just vouchers. I would form a commission that would research a way forward to ultimately privatize the vast majority of schools, particularly in urban areas, within 10 years." |
