Hard lessons about Big Business, the Chamber of Commerce, their undue influence in the Republican Party have been a hard one for me to accept, and yet too many people are content to shout ''Establishment" without really identifying the core problems
This has been the hardest lesson for me to learn.
I never thought that being pro-business could compromise one's fight for liberty and limited government. Yet I have learned to accept what Scott Rasmussen argued after the disappointing 2012 President Elections: too many people still see the Republicans Party as pro Big Business.
There is much truth to this assertion. More conservatives must confront this fact, and the forces behind it, then overcome Big Business elements to make sure that their party grows stronger, and enhances the preeminence of the individual, our local governments, and state sovereignty against the federal government.
