Radio Ad 1 Script – Tim Scott – Healthcare (Radio: 60)
ANNOUNCER: Tim Scott is a Conservative Republican running for Congress. Here’s Tim Scott talking about healthcare.
TIM SCOTT: The current track we’re on in Washington is moving us closer to socialism. Think about it – Nationalized health care…really? It’s not about healthcare. It’s about controlling another one-sixth of our economy. Washington spends way too much money. When you think about it, this healthcare debacle…$1.2 trillion dollars…$570 billion dollars of new taxes…$52 billion dollars of new taxes for small business owners like me. We can’t afford it. Because I realize that what we have in government today is not a problem with money, we have a problem with priorities. We’ve gotten enough revenues $3.8 trillion dollars…give me a break! We don’t need more money, we need better priorities. What we need is courage. We need a backbone and some common sense. I’m Tim Scott and I approve this message.
ANNOUNCER: Tim Scott. Conservative Republican for Congress. Paid for by Tim Scott for Congress.
Radio Ad 2 – Tim Scott – Jobs & Taxes (Radio: 60)
ANNOUNCER: Tim Scott is a Conservative Republican running for Congress. Here’s Tim Scott talking about taxes and jobs.
TIM SCOTT: Free enterprise is the power that makes America great. The government does not create jobs…private sector, entrepreneurs create jobs. When you think about it, an employer can pay higher taxes or hire more people – we can’t do both. For more than a dozen years, I served on County Council without raising taxes. Over and over again our administrator or someone said, “Let’s raise taxes. We really need to do…” fill in the blank. No. We need to live within our budget. We need to tighten our belts and keep the money where the people are, not where the government is. Make a promise, keep a promise. The American people demand it and they deserve it. I’m Tim Scott and I approve this message.
ANNOUNCER: Tim Scott. Conservative Republican for Congress. Paid for by Tim Scott for Congress.
