 Feeling Being Left Behind

I’m Done Accepting It Hardworking Coloradans are doing everything right — and still falling behind.
Wages don’t keep up. Housing is out of reach. Child care costs more than rent. Meanwhile, the system keeps working for the same insiders who already have everything.
That ends now.
I believe every Coloradan deserves a Minimum Standard of Living:
• Food
• Housing
• Transportation
• Communication
• Free child care
Not someday. Now.
This isn’t socialism. It isn’t handouts. It’s the bare minimum a modern, wealthy state owes the people who built it.
And here’s the difference: we reward responsibility.
I’m introducing the Moral Initiative Point System (MIPS) — a voluntary, earned system that gives real benefits to people who step up.
If you work, serve, volunteer, mentor, care for family, protect our land, or run an honest business, Colorado should work for you.
No punishments.
No spying.
No political games.
Just points you can use for transportation, education, housing help, and opportunity.
We will rebuild Colorado with local food, community farms, modern transportation, and future-proof jobs — not empty promises and corporate giveaways.
This campaign is about people over politics, neighbors over special interests, and results over excuses.
No one left behind — because this state belongs to all of us.
Fred Osborne
Candidate for Governor of Colorado

  Colorado, it’s time for something different. My name is Fred Osborne — A small business owner, tradesman, and founder of Dude’s Laboring LLC right here in Colorado Springs. As a candidate for Governor because I believe our state should work for the people who actually build it. I’m not a career politician. I’ve worked with my hands, built a business from the ground up, and faced the same struggles many of you deal with every day — rising costs, broken systems... and a government that feels out of touch. That’s why I’m proposing real solutions: • A statewide task force to eradicate poverty and homelessness • The Moral Incentive Point System (MIPS) — rewarding hard work, community contribution, and personal responsibility • Establishing a minimum standard of happiness for every Colorado resident Colorado is one of the greatest states in this country — but we can do better. We can take care of our people, restore dignity, and create real opportunity again. This campaign isn’t about ...
