The talk station.
Speaker 1 (01:01):
Three fifty five KRCD Talk station. Happy Tuesday made especially
happy because right now we get to talk with the
next governor of the state of Ohio. Welcome back to
the fifty five CARC Morning Show. It's always a real
pleasure to have ve ak Ramaswami on the program. Welcome back,
my friend.
Speaker 3 (01:17):
How are you, sir.
Speaker 1 (01:18):
I'm doing great, man, and I am excited as hell
about your campaign. I cannot wait to vote for you.
I have been blessed with the opportunity here. You speak
multiple times. You and I have had conversations on the
Morning show. We see eye to eye on all the
important issues. And you know, I got to compliment you now.
Your background is just absolutely perfect. You're brilliant graduate valedictorian
(01:39):
from Saint Xavier High School here in a city of Cincinnati,
native son some of cum Lottie graduate and biology from Harvard,
jd from Yale Law School. You started your own biotech company,
oversaw the development of five drugs. You went on to
become FBA approved that roy Van Sciences. You've written books,
I mean, and you outkicked your coverage in marriage. You
are demonstrably and awesome candidate, my friend, and I cannot
(02:01):
wait to get you elected. The campaign's going well. You
got a record fundraising going on right now.
Speaker 3 (02:08):
Yeah, look at campaigs going great.
Speaker 4 (02:09):
We've never seen unity like this across our state, right
and I think that that's one of the things that
strengthens us. Usually in a Republican primary season like this,
there'd be a knife fight amongst people who agree with
each other on ninety percent of things and attack each other. Anyway,
we're skipping that this time, and we don't have to
go through that phase of the attack phase of the process.
Speaker 3 (02:31):
We're united, and I'm.
Speaker 4 (02:33):
Glad to say that our party, our movement, and I
hope our state more broadly is united around common sense
economic excellence, educational excellence in this state. And one of
the things I've noticed from traveling this state is we've
been to over sixty plus counties of the eighty eight.
Speaker 3 (02:49):
In the last several months.
Speaker 4 (02:51):
I don't care whether people are even calling themselves democratic, dependent, libertarian,
politically homeless, or Republican for that matter. I think that
most people in our state are united around elevating our
educational achievement standards in our schools, so many of which
have underperformed, and also elevated around reducing the tax and
(03:12):
regulatory burden in this state so that we become the
state that leads the next industrial revolution, just like we
led the first one. And so to me right now,
this is not about left versus right. It's about up
versus down. We're choosing up for the state of Ohio,
and I want us to be the state that leads
America back to greatness, not just Texas or Florida. We're
(03:34):
done with living in their shadow and we're now ready.
Speaker 3 (03:36):
To leave the way ourselves.
Speaker 1 (03:37):
Amen to that, and I think a step in the
right direction.
Speaker 3 (03:40):
At least.
Speaker 1 (03:41):
One of the elements in the budget just Dwine just
signed was the flat two point seventy five percent tax
income tax. Are you a visionary in the sense you
want to get rid of the income tax here in
Ohio and make us more marketable when we have to
compete with states like Texas and Florida.
Speaker 3 (03:58):
Absolutely.
Speaker 4 (03:59):
I do think that we have a depopulation issue we're
going to address in the state. Especially a lot of
our younger age workers are the ones who tend to
leave the state, and we have more Americans leaving our
state than we have moving in. We're going to turn
that ship around by making Ohio the most attractive state
in the country to raise a young family, to grow
a business, and yes, to generate wealth and to keep
(04:22):
that wealth.
Speaker 3 (04:23):
It's your money, not the government.
Speaker 4 (04:25):
And if eight other states have managed to get to
zero income tax, you know what the state to put
a man in the moon and configure this one out.
I'm proud of the legislature. I think that was a
great step that we took in the right direction.
Speaker 3 (04:36):
I've been to a simpler.
Speaker 5 (04:38):
Flat taxation system at the state level, but I want
us to be a state that is a serving in
tax but what draw that includes a zero capital game
taxation state. One of the only steps we can take
this there New Hampshire. These are still nominally zero.
Speaker 3 (04:57):
Income tax states. They'll still taxpay.
Speaker 5 (05:00):
Conversely, I want to hire.
Speaker 3 (05:03):
A magnet capital in leading in the.
Speaker 4 (05:05):
Sectors of the future, from nuclear energy to biotech, and
these are areas where I not only.
Speaker 3 (05:10):
Want to catch up to some of these other states.
Speaker 4 (05:13):
I want to lead and be a magnet for the
top talent and capital around the country well.
Speaker 1 (05:18):
And one of the things we've talked about that I
think would encourage and help along those lines is energy production.
Here in the state of Ohio. And moving over and
embracing the small modular nuclear reactors and sort of being
the the the go to state for efficient power generation
and you know, affordable power. If we embrace that and
(05:40):
provide an abundance of power, I mean, we could sell
off that power to other states who are going the
opposite direction.
Speaker 4 (05:46):
Absolutely, and right now, I just want to be sober
about where we are with the AI data centers and
other hyperscalers come into the state. That's while it's an opportunity,
it is also a major source of added man on
our electric grid. And right now AEP is forecasting rotating
blackouts in the state of Ohio in the summer of
(06:08):
twenty twenty seven.
Speaker 3 (06:10):
That's unacceptable, I.
Speaker 4 (06:11):
Mean unacceptable in America, but you're seeing it in California.
It's certainly inciple in our state of Ohio. We're going
to turn that ship around.
Speaker 5 (06:20):
It.
Speaker 4 (06:20):
Good news is the get the energy out underneath our
ground to start with and use it. That's natural gas
in the near term where we're incredibly wealthy and natural
gas we just have to cut the red tape to
be able to use it. And then you hit the
nail on the head and the medium term after that
I want to lead Ohio to.
Speaker 3 (06:38):
Be the top state in the country.
Speaker 4 (06:40):
To embrace and really innovate in the area of small
modular nuclear reactors, which is a far safer new generation,
incredibly safe new generation of technology that's quickly built, that's scalable,
and that really leads us to our future not just
for the next four years, but the next four hundred,
and has energy abundance that's accessible, that's a four stable, cheap,
(07:01):
reliable for all of Hilands, as I believe is the
proper expectation of every person who grows up in Ohio
to live in the first world and be at the
leading edge rather than playing catch up with energy shortages.
Speaker 1 (07:13):
As Governor of State of Ohio, you enjoy the line
item veto and I have to ask this. I know
it's a minor point, and even though it is six
hundred million dollars, but one of the items that was
not cut from the Dwine budget that was just signed
six hundred million dollars for the Cleveland Browns New Dome Stadium.
I find that as a taxpayer offensive, Sir. I'd like
your reaction on the idea that the Ohio taxpayer should
(07:35):
be funding a privately owned sports team and stadium.
Speaker 3 (07:40):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (07:40):
Look, I mean I've been clear with our friends of
the legislature, and also out of respect to Governor DeWine,
I'm not going to go one by one through his
line out of veto's. A lot of those just came
in even overnight, and so that's fresh news this morning.
What I will say is this, I want to run
things in our state a little differently than the way
even other states run, and even some of the ways
(08:01):
our state has run historically.
Speaker 5 (08:03):
What the job of a governor, I believe is to
lead and set the achain.
Speaker 4 (08:07):
So you want to get a deal done, go do
that deal done the best interests of the taxpayers of
this state in mind, and then work with the legislators
on the front end to ratify that deal rather than
playing this game of you know, the legislature.
Speaker 3 (08:22):
A lot of great people in the legislature, by the way, but.
Speaker 4 (08:25):
Each of whom are shepherding their own proposals, not knowing
whether or not the governor is going to sign it.
That's the way most states are run. To be honest
with you, we're going to change that. I don't think
that that's functional to be able.
Speaker 3 (08:36):
To drive an actual bold agenda and to this stadium issue.
It's going to come up time and again.
Speaker 4 (08:41):
And my view is that the job of the governor,
the job of elected officials of the state, is to
ask what gets the best deal for Ohio residents.
Speaker 3 (08:50):
And to me, if you want to think about smart
deals that.
Speaker 4 (08:53):
Get local skin in the game, that get greater skin
in the game for private investors, that's the job of
a governor, and then you go to the legislature.
Speaker 3 (09:00):
To ratify it, rather than the game of.
Speaker 4 (09:03):
Legislators pushing one proposal, no idea, whether the governor is
going to line at them vt to it in certain
cases versus others. We're going to move to a new
phase of unified leadership in the state through open communication
that includes at the state and local level.
Speaker 3 (09:16):
Frankly, at the local level, you know, in a lot
of these projects, I think there should be greater local
student games.
Speaker 4 (09:21):
The local municipality is going to derive the benefit, then
it would stand to reason that the local community that's
going to benefit the most is also investing in a
project that's supposed to benefit them. If a local municipality
or a local county doesn't want advantage to raise questions
about how big those proposed economic benefits really are. So
I would say that without reference to any specific project,
but about the principles that I would bring in the
(09:43):
future is skin in the game for everybody, smart deals
for the state, and then take a leadership approach.
Speaker 3 (09:50):
Round the front end. You're meeting with the legislative leaders
and you're going in.
Speaker 4 (09:54):
With a one team mentality, especially with Republican majorities across
the board.
Speaker 3 (09:58):
There's really no reason not to run the state that way.
And you know, I want to give give credit re presit.
Speaker 4 (10:03):
We're a great state. We're one of the best in
the Midwest. I just don't want to lead us to
be one of the best in the Midwest alone. I
want to lead us out to be the top state
in the country. And I think that's going to require
moving forward with more of a forward, leading, strong one
Ohio leadership in how we work with our partners in
the legislature and also how we work with local governments
(10:26):
and the other statewide elected officials. We're done operating in silos.
I'm ready to lead this state with a one Ohio mentality.
Speaker 3 (10:33):
And I think that's going to make us stronger.
Speaker 1 (10:35):
F big Ramaswami real quickly here, would you, as governor
of the state of Ohio, we have a problem with fraud,
wasted abuse, like every all government programs, but I understant
we have a pronounced problem with medicaid fraud. Would you
at least embrace the concept of going after fraud, waste
and abuse in these various government programs aggressively to save
the Ohio tax payer dollars.
Speaker 3 (10:58):
Absolutely, Brian, I mean, it's just common sense. Really.
Speaker 4 (11:01):
Again, that isn't about left versus right. It's about saving
all our taxpayer dollars. The fact of the matter is
there's now evidence. You have great legislators like Jennifer Gross
and others who have uncovered work showing that there are
Ohio directed Medicaid dollars flowing to recipients in other states. Yeah,
that doesn't make any sense. And the fact of the
matter is Ohio deserves better than that. So I think
(11:23):
we deserve leaders who are willing to confront the reality
that many of our taxpayer dollars do go to waste.
But the way we're going to do it isn't some
theoretical academic exercise. It's all part of a project to
put more money in the pockets of Ohioans. I think
Ohioans deserve We're hard working people deserve to keep what
they are, deserve to bear a lower property tax burden.
(11:47):
Remember it is your land, not the governments. Property taxes
have gotten insanely high.
Speaker 3 (11:53):
In this state.
Speaker 4 (11:54):
And instead of asking you know, what benefit needs to
be cut versus not for those property taxes to come down,
let's actually start with a much easier question of where's
just the waste, where's just the abuse? In some cases
we're's the outright fraud. And I think Ohiolan's deserve to
pay lower property Texas. I think Ohioan's deserve to get
to a zero income tax state as day other states
(12:15):
have gotten to. That's where I'm going to lead us.
Combine that with lifting up our educational achievement standards, and
we're going to have a renaissance in this state of
a kind that we have not seen since the first
Industrial Revolution. That's where I want to lead Ohio. And
I can tell you, Brian, in about eighteen months, I'm
excited to get started.
Speaker 1 (12:34):
You are, and we're here to help you. Youvek Ramaswami

Speaker 4 (08:53):
Get local skin in the game, that get greater skin
in the game for private investors, that's the job of
a governor, and then you go to the legislature.
Speaker 3 (09:00):
To ratify it, rather than the game of.
Speaker 4 (09:03):
Legislators pushing one proposal, no idea, whether the governor is
going to line at them vt to it in certain
cases versus others. We're going to move to a new
phase of unified leadership in the state through open communication
that includes at the state and local level.
Speaker 3 (09:16):
Frankly, at the local level, you know, in a lot
of these projects, I think there should be greater local
student games.
Speaker 4 (09:21):
The local municipality is going to derive the benefit, then
it would stand to reason that the local community that's
going to benefit the most is also investing in a
project that's supposed to benefit them. If a local municipality
or a local county doesn't want advantage to raise questions
about how big those proposed economic benefits really are. So
I would say that without reference to any specific project,
but about the principles that I would bring in the
(09:43):
future is skin in the game for everybody, smart deals
for the state, and then take a leadership approach.
Speaker 3 (09:50):
Round the front end. You're meeting with the legislative leaders
and you're going in.
Speaker 4 (09:54):
With a one team mentality, especially with Republican majorities across
the board.
Speaker 3 (09:58):
There's really no reason not to run the state that way.
And you know, I want to give give credit re presit.
Speaker 4 (10:03):
We're a great state. We're one of the best in
the Midwest. I just don't want to lead us to
be one of the best in the Midwest alone. I
want to lead us out to be the top state
in the country. And I think that's going to require
moving forward with more of a forward, leading, strong one
Ohio leadership in how we work with our partners in
the legislature and also how we work with local governments
(10:26):
and the other statewide elected officials. We're done operating in silos.
I'm ready to lead this state with a one Ohio mentality.
Speaker 3 (10:33):
And I think that's going to make us stronger.
Speaker 1 (10:35):
F big Ramaswami real quickly here, would you, as governor
of the state of Ohio, we have a problem with fraud,
wasted abuse, like every all government programs, but I understant
we have a pronounced problem with medicaid fraud. Would you
at least embrace the concept of going after fraud, waste
and abuse in these various government programs aggressively to save
the Ohio tax payer dollars.
Speaker 3 (10:58):
Absolutely, Brian, I mean, it's just common sense. Really.
Speaker 4 (11:01):
Again, that isn't about left versus right. It's about saving
all our taxpayer dollars. The fact of the matter is
there's now evidence. You have great legislators like Jennifer Gross
and others who have uncovered work showing that there are
Ohio directed Medicaid dollars flowing to recipients in other states. Yeah,
that doesn't make any sense. And the fact of the
matter is Ohio deserves better than that. So I think
(11:23):
we deserve leaders who are willing to confront the reality
that many of our taxpayer dollars do go to waste.
But the way we're going to do it isn't some
theoretical academic exercise. It's all part of a project to
put more money in the pockets of Ohioans. I think
Ohioans deserve We're hard working people deserve to keep what
they are, deserve to bear a lower property tax burden.
(11:47):
Remember it is your land, not the governments. Property taxes
have gotten insanely high.
Speaker 3 (11:53):
In this state.
Speaker 4 (11:54):
And instead of asking you know, what benefit needs to
be cut versus not for those property taxes to come down,
let's actually start with a much easier question of where's
just the waste, where's just the abuse? In some cases
we're's the outright fraud. And I think Ohiolan's deserve to
pay lower property Texas. I think Ohioan's deserve to get
to a zero income tax state as day other states
(12:15):
have gotten to. That's where I'm going to lead us.
Combine that with lifting up our educational achievement standards, and
we're going to have a renaissance in this state of
a kind that we have not seen since the first
Industrial Revolution. That's where I want to lead Ohio. And
I can tell you, Brian, in about eighteen months, I'm
excited to get started.
