As Washington prospers, workers suffer.

One of the reasons Americans hold Washington in such low regard is the perception that nothing ever gets done. Whatever the issue - no matter how urgent - they always seem to be 'working on it.'

Washington policymakers have to understand the adverse implications of their actions on job creation, and they must reorder some of their priorities.

Jobs are central to the American dream - and President Obama has focused on jobs from day one.

We should strive to be employed in such a way that we don't realize that what we're doing is work.

The idea that the business world's needs get ignored in Washington is perpetuated by business so it can fulfill even more of its needs, real or imagined.

Working is a great distraction technique.

That's the real secret to job creation - not borrowing and spending more money in Washington.

The office during the day has become the last place people want to be when they really want to get work done. In fact, offices have become interruption factories.

So our focus has to be on the things that we can control, which is to take the necessary measures working with Congress to ensure that our economy grows, that we create jobs.
