Through hard work and education, we can deliver a strong economy and opportunity for all.

And innovation and entrepreneurship is the opportunity and best opportunity we have to grow the economy.

And that's how we build the economy of the future. An economy with more jobs and less debt, we root it in fairness. We grow it with opportunity. And we build it together.

What I believe in, in terms of getting our economy going again, is that we need to invest in opportunity today for prosperity tomorrow.

If we truly want to achieve lasting economic growth, we need our businesses to do more business - and we need them to do it in America.

We need to have a strong economy that can create employment opportunities and that can also produce the revenue that we need to defend our country at home and abroad.

We can choose a future where we export more products and outsource fewer jobs. After a decade that was defined by what we bought and borrowed, we're getting back to basics, and doing what America has always done best: We're making things again.

So the American economy needs the world, and the world needs the American economy.

As the economy improves, there aren't as many opportunities.
