Kevin Patrick for House of Delegates

This is an overview of my thoughts for West Virginia, and if you would like a more in-depth look, here's some big ideas about the big picture.

West Virginia:
- Wild and Wonderful:
    - Tourism is a major income for WV, we need to protect our State's environment and be responsible with our planet.
- Business:
   - We need to make WV compatible with business.
   - We need to attract young and new business opportunities.
   - We must be competitive with near-by States.
   - Businesses must be accountable if they break our laws.
   - We should invest in future technologies, including alternative energy sources.
      - Until then, we should use what we have, including Coal Liquefaction.
   - Business lobbies and special interests must be curtailed.
   - Abolish 'Corporate Personhood.'
- Jobs:
    - We need to bring the jobs of the next century to WV.
    - We must promote the re-training of those in the market to work these new jobs.
- More money in our pockets:
   - Reduce taxes.
   - No service fees for State roads.
   - Eliminate the Food Tax.
- Politics:
    - Hand-counted paper ballots.
    - Reduce the cost/size of our government.
        - WV should never be in debt.  
- Second Amendment
   - A Right not a Privilege
   - Seek reciprocity agreements
   - Strengthen State-preemption to Charleston and Dunbar
   - Institute "Vermont Carry" w/i the State (permitless concealed carry)
   - Strong Supporter
