Samuel Rivers Seeks SC House District 15

The 2012 election season  is here and I need your help to make sure that Berkeley County 15th District will add strong,  consistent and reliable conservative voice in South Carolina State  House.

Stand with me today and  donate $10.00 Campaigns are only won when they have the strong support of  voters, and a donation of any size can help grow that  support.

I look forward to serving  in State House and joining the conservative  South Carolina leaders fighting  for:

Economic Opportunity for All

As a  Conservative Republican, I believe in basic principles of self-reliance and  accountability. We live in the greatest country that has ever existed and we are  free to strive for life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. With hard work,  principled living and responsibility, anyone can succeed here. 

Can  our government play a role?  Absolutely!  Our government  can promote legislation that nurtures entrepreneurial-ship, innovation and  creativity by limiting the amount of regulations placed on thriving South Carolina small  businesses and lowering the tax responsibility of business owners so they can  invest in job growth. 

In  the State House, I will represent the citizens in my district by always  supporting bills and enforcing laws that foster job growth and economic  opportunities.

Education

Our  children’s education should not be limited to the classroom.  Hand in hand with parents at the helm,  we, as Conservatives, believe that parents and guardians have the greatest  responsibility to educate children.  We can, however form alliances within our community to supplement  educational opportunities by working with law enforcement agency leaders, school  leaders, community organization leaders and faith based leaders.  These alliances should lower taxes  due to less duplication of services and will also limit the size of government.

Freedom and Personal  Liberty

As a  Republican, I believe the role of the government is to protect us as citizens  and not encroach on our right to live as law-abiding citizens making our own  decisions for how we govern our lives.

Our  government was never meant to be the sole provider for the basic needs of its  citizens. With the exception of aiding our most vulnerable citizens, the  government should not operate as a business with limitless growth potential  funded by us, the taxpayers, with no oversight by us, the taxpayers. A runaway  government is just as dangerous as a runaway train without a  conductor.

Taxes

I recognize that we need to simplify the tax system; both to lower rates  and to broaden the tax base so that taxation becomes an instrument for promoting  economic growth.  I will work to keep the tax structure stable so that  investors and entrepreneurs are not confronted with a constantly shifting set of  rules that makes it impossible for them to plan  ahead.

South  Carolina has an abundance of natural resources,  a high quality of life and a labor environment that provides a competitive and  pro business environment for job creators. Our tax code, however, is decisively  anti business and uncompetitive.   South Carolina needs a tax code that  encourages new business and does not punish them. We need a tax code that is  fair and efficient and not a tool to doling out political favors to special  interests.

I  believe in the conservative principle that Americans should be able to keep the  money they earn. We pay taxes for the operations of government; it’s my belief  that taxes should only be collected by a system that is simple and fair, and  that causes the least possible disruption to the productive economy. I will work  towards a long term solution to lower and flatter tax rates and reduce corporate  income tax rate.

Your financial support  plays an important role in South Carolina State House primary. I’ve been working  hard to earn every vote in South Carolina District 15. And today, every single  dollar will matter. I need your help today to make sure I’m able to  carry a conservative message to South Carolina State House  of Representatives. Stand with me today and donate $10.00 Campaigns are only won when  they have the strong support of voters, and a donation of any size can help grow  that support.
