John Kasich's New Policy Proposals Are A Fraud On Voters

The problem with John Kasich's policy proposals is that they are as fraudulent as Lehman Brothers' exotic investment products.  Everything he is proposing is either illegal, unworkable or has been enacted into law already.  For example:

Proposal:  Kasich wants to cut Ohio's income taxes to spur the economy.  Fact:  Legislative Republicans and Governor Strickland cut state income taxes by 17% over a number of years. 

Proposal:  Kasich wants to cut Ohio's regulations and red tape to spur the economy:  Fact:  Governor Ted Strickland long ago issued an executive order that eliminated 208 rules and revised over 2,000 rules to make Ohio more business friendly.

Proposal:  Kasich wants to enact tort reform in Ohio.  Fact:  Ohio Republicans enacted comprehensive tort reform in Ohio in 2004.   The U.S. Chamber called the legislation landmark.

Proposal:  Kasich wants to eliminate the Ohio Department of Development and replace it with a nonprofit group.  Fact:  Experts say the proposal won't help existing businesses and might even be illegal.  See story here.

This isn't a new day or a new way.  This is just old, fat, and lazy.
