Prosperity comes from the private sector.

The private sector is motivated by profit and efficiency and the US government often is not.

When we get the private sector going through job creation and growth, then the governments at all level have revenues to do the things that they need to do. And that's why it's so important to get this economy moving, to get jobs created. We can't keep going on with this anemic recovery.

I think politicians get hamstrung by the nature of politics when the private sector can really do great things.

We must never forget that it is the private sector - not government - that is the engine of economic opportunity. Businesses, particularly small businesses, flourish and can provide good jobs when government acts as a productive partner.

The private sector must play a role in ensuring the prosperity and health of the people who comprise its market. It is time for the private sector to become a proactive partner contributing to the efforts of governments and philanthropies.

Most people work for the private sector, which cannot exist without profit.

When you go into public service, you understand you're trading something. You want to feel good about what you do, but you're not going to make what people in private sector make.

Most of our funding goes to organizations and is then used to leverage the private sector.

My own belief is that the way we grow the economy, create jobs, create wealth is in the private sector. The government doesn't do that.
