Interviewee: Fred Tausch

Fred Tausch is a citizen and concerned taxpayer from Merrimack, New Hampshire. Fred Tausch graduated from Tufts University with a dual degree in Electrical Engineering and Computer Science in 1994. He is a small businessman, an entrepreneur and an investor.

Fred Tausch moved to New Hampshire because of its low tax structure which has no sales or income tax. Fred Tausch’s business a country cannot tax and spend itself into a strong, robust economy. Fred Tausch is also passionate about preserving New Hampshire’s unique status as a smaller government and low tax state.

Fred Tausch considered running for Senate in 2010, but decided against it. Instead, he formed STEWARD for Properity. “STEWARD” stands for Save The Economy Without Accumulating Record Debt. Steward for Prosperity is an organization committed to spreading the message of fiscal responsibility, and convince the American public to stop government waste.

According to Fred Tausch, among the most amazing phenomena in American politics today is “the continued belief by our elected leaders’ that we the people cannot read through their rhetoric in order to understand the straight facts.” He cites the example of Senator Jeanne Shaheen’s Op-Ed in today’s New Hampshire Union Leader.

Fred Tausch writes, “Despite supporting a nearly trillion-dollar “stimulus” bill financed exclusively through deficit spending, despite voting for a bloated omnibus spending bill stuffed with almost 9,000 earmarks, and despite agreeing to a $3.4 trillion budget reconciliation bill – the largest in U.S. history – Sen. Shaheen says “we need to get back on the path to a balanced budget.”

Fred Tausch believes a good first step on the path of fiscal responsibility to reject further government stimulus packages that will only leaded a bloated federal deficit.

Fred Tausch applauds Americans who gathered to protest the reckless spending of the government with “Tea Parties.” Fred Tausch believes that these Tea Parties should be a wake up call to to the government to further rein in spending.
