One Nation
Under God

Lindsey Wilharm believes that government should be limited and reduced in order to reduce corruption and increase efficiency. Government exists solely to protect our God given individual freedoms and serve the people in their righteous pursuits. Lindsey believes adhering to the original principles of the U.S. Constitution is essential to maintaining our freedom. The rule of law is how society is able to preserve life, liberty, property, and carry out justice. It is the job of the government to assure the rule of law is practiced fairly and consistently. Increased audits and investigations should be carried out to ensure this is the case. Voting is the core method that enables every American can participate in their government. The integrity of voting needs to be protected at all costs. Eliminating mail in voting, requiring identification, and making Election Day a federal holiday is the simplest solution to preserving fair and honest elections. The United States maintains peace through strength, and this is achieved through a well trained and equipped military. One of the biggest challenges America currently faces is blatant fiscal irresponsibility. Tax payers should not have to watch as their hard earned money is carelessly spent overseas while our infrastructure crumbles, citizens struggle, and the national debt increases astronomically. Money is utilized best when kept in the pockets of hardworking Americans. Income tax was meant to be a temporary aid for our military, but it has become a global slush fund, aiding the militaries and societies of potential adversaries. Our intelligence agencies and department of justice need increased judicial oversight, and repercussions for continuously failing financial audits and oversight reviews. The large scope of corruption in every division of the government is disgustingly clear to the American people who demand successful solutions. Lindsey believes in America first and America only, our taxes should be spent on our citizens, our infrastructure, and our military. We need to prioritize and focus on restoring national sovereignty. The United States should not be expected to be the policemen and welfare lenders of the world. We need to limit use of our military power and reestablish ourselves as a global beacon of peace and freedom. The government has increasingly restricted the free markets, creating unnecessary obstacles that prevent economic expansion. Free markets thrive when oversight is limited and hard work and self-sacrifice are rewarded. Hard work should always be highlighted as the path out of poverty. Welfare programs have become a breeding ground of corruption that are recklessly unregulated, and all encompassing under the guise of empathy. We need to ensure the assistance is going only to the people who are desperately in need. The government should create other programs or incentives enabling people to help themselves. If we do not reverse the course of corruption within our government, the foundation of our constitutional republic will further crumble enabling chaos and lack of respect for the rule of law.
