<p>Speaking at an Ohio delegation breakfast, Arkansas Sen. Tom Cotton maintained that change is needed in America&#8217;s economic and tax policies, saying that only certain groups, such as the wealthy, political insiders and those working with renewable energy, are seeing benefits.</p><p>&#8220;For everyone else in the working class and the working poor, there is zero growth,&#8221; he said. &#8220;The Obama economy is not working for those people.&#8221;</p><p>Allen County (Ohio) Republican Party Chairman Keith Cheney said Cotton&#8217;s message resonated with the audience.</p><p>&#8220;(People in America) don&#8217;t realize at times that, as Sen. Cotton said, that we&#8217;re basically taxed from the time we get up until we go to bed,&#8221; he said. &#8220;We need some tax breaks in America.&#8221;</p><p>Madison County (Ohio) delegate Kathleen Henry also agreed with Cotton&#8217;s assertion of Americans paying too many taxes.</p><p>&#8220;Increased taxes is not a solution. It&#8217;s a problem,&#8221; she said. &#8220;We need a president who believes in less tax and who can lead our country to reduce our deficit at the same time.&#8221;</p><style>
