NEW: Hinckley Blames Sen. Whitehouse for RI’s Poor Business Ranking
Thursday, July 12, 2012
“The political choices we make have consequences,” stated Hinckley. “Decades of overspending, over-regulation, and over-taxation have led us to this unfortunate situation. It should be no surprise that unemployment in our Ocean State continues to hover around 11% - one of the worst jobless rates in the country.”
“It is no coincidence that policies that are bad for business are also bad for jobs,” Hinckley said. “Even more shocking is Senator Whitehouse’s recent comments that he ‘doesn't know a single small business in Rhode Island that is going to be made or broken by tax rates.’ Yes, he actually said that. Unfortunately, Sheldon Whitehouse has taken the same bad policies that have destroyed Rhode Island's economy to Washington, DC. He continues to support higher taxes, more regulation, and more spending. The results have been predictable: a high cost to do business in America, leading to more outsourcing and more Americans out of work.”

Whitehouse has tons of money but I don't think it will matter... People are sick of the Sheldon Whitehouse's and Cicilline's same ol' fear tactics they use every election. It's insulting that these career politicians think we are stupid. Hinckley might just get lucky and be in the right place at the right time but overall I think Hinckley would have a far better voting record for RI in the US Senate. Taxes DO hurt small businesses... just ask any single business owner in Rhode Island.

I just commented about this in the "Mindsetter" story about jobs. It appears Mr. Hinckley is listening. Good luck Mr. Hinckley.

Come on Hinkley, how can you blame Whitehouse for anything????
He hasn't done a damn thing since he's been in office.
Please kick his ass in November!!!!
