- Happy Anniversary: 'Contract with America' Delivering a More Efficient, Effective Government, Says Rnc
WASHINGTON, Sept. 27 /U.S. Newswire/ -- The following Fact Sheet on the "Contract with America" was released today by the Republican National Committee: Eleven years ago, a group of men and women gathered together to lay out a positive agenda for a stronger, more prosperous and more compassionate America. Some called these men and women foolhardy. The American people called them the new majority. Republicans have maintained our majority because we've remained true to the Contract's goals. Today, as we confront new dangers in the world and challenges at home, Republicans proceed with the vision of a better America that is epitomized by the 'Contract With America.'" - - Ken Mehlman, RNC chairman

- Contract with America: neutral costrecovery system.
The proposed neutral cost recovery system (NCRS) of depreciation introduced as part of the Contract with America is intended to ensure that depreciation deductions better reflect the benefit of capital expenditures. The method will increase revenue in the short-term, but will benefit business in the long-term by accounting for inflation and limiting the erosion of depreciation deduction value. NCRS uses a 150% double-declining balance method modified for changes in prices.

The principle of shared responsibility was proposed to address this social predicament. This principle is based on mutual interdependence and reciprocity.

- A New Contract with America ; the Republican Opposition Needs to Offer a National Agenda
Families around the country forced to cut back to make it through the tough economic times are right to be upset that politicians in Washington have no interest in exercising similar fiscal discipline. This disconnect between the public and elected leaders has manifested itself in a growing Tea Party movement that should leave many holding the reins of power today wondering what they might be holding after November. According to a CNN survey released Wednesday, 63 percent of registered voters think most members of Congress deserve to lose their jobs. Such anti-Congress sentiment rarely touches a voter's own representative, who tends to be protected by the goodwill that comes from delivering earmarks and local goodies at general taxpayer expense. The poll holds troubling news even for th...
