Sam Brownback has made a lasting impression on Kansas, however not necessarily for the right reasons. He thinks he is going at this the right way, and making the right decisions but he is actually ruining our state. We need to get somebody else in office who is going to think about all Kansans, not just the rich. Although, Sam Brownback had to have done something right to get elected as our governor in the first place, we do not want to re-elect him because he is leading the “March to Zero” experiment on Kansas, eliminating spending money on the poor and jobs , as well as cutting millions of dollars of the state 's spending on education.

Sam Brownback leading the “March to Zero”, he is also trying to change Kansas by eliminating spending money on the poor, and eliminating jobs. He thinks he is helping our state, trying to protect us, however he is actually creating many issues. “The governor’s proposed budget leaves intact the total income tax exemption for owners of about 200,000 businesses who declare their profits on their personal tax forms. That policy, while benefiting some of the state’s wealthiest citizens, is draining revenues without showing evidence of strong job growth.” (Wagner 1).

It is going to impact Kansas in a bad way, and does not make any sense. Brownback is cutting the jobs for the poor, making the top 1% of Kansans more wealthy than they already are, which is making the poor even lower on the economic totem pole. Our education budget is already low, and continues to be cut each year, and why would he think it is okay to experiment on Kansas. He just seems like a very hard-headed, dominant, individual.
