We have spent our time in government fixing the economy.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I understand what needs to be done to fix the economy.
We own the economy. We own the beginning of the turnaround and we want to make sure that we continue that pace of recovery, not go back to the policies of the past under the Bush administration that put us in the ditch in the first place.
We still have a major problem in debt with America that we have to find efficiencies in government to get us back to a balanced budget.
We've got to get things done. We've got an economy that is stabilized, but not moving ahead.
We're focused on doing the things that make the economy perform well, and as you do that, reduce deficits, for one, very important; secondly, keep growth rates high, very important.
We have the most flexible and adaptive economy. Making sure we sustain the ability of the American economy to perform well is really the priority of economic policy.
We've got a lot of work to do: not only on education, but on the economy, on our tax code, and on reducing our crushing debt.
We have to get government out of the job of picking winners and losers. That's what they've been doing the last year and a half, getting in the way of businesses that are trying to reinvest to get our economy back on its feet.
We have to change course. And we have to do so now. That is why I worked with my colleagues in Washington to pass the Economic Recovery and Reinvestment Act.
We have major fiscal problems on our hand.
