Representing Kansas' "Big First" district is a true conservative, Jerry Moran, as the Dodge City Globe reports:"Where good things happen is not in Washington," he said. "The laws we pass, yeah, they're important. But the way you change the world is really one person at a time."
True, very true. What will pull us out of this economic mess is not government, but the man or woman working in a garage creating the next "better mouse trap."

To Kansas Congressman Jerry Moran, the phrase "economic stimulus" means reducing Americans' taxes, putting more people to work quickly and improving the nation's highways.
Moran said the federal government's new economic recovery package was originally supposed to provide money for "shovel-ready" projects designed to upgrade the nation's highway system. Instead, he said, such projects accounted for only 8 percent of the final package, which consisted primarily of normal spending on government programs.
"What happened, in my opinion, is that Congress operated as business as usual, and anything that anybody wanted to spend money on became labeled a stimulus and stuck in the bill that we passed," he said.
Moran is expected to be a candidate for Sam Brownback's Senate seat next year. Brownback committed quite some time ago to serving just two terms in the Senate.
