You cannot solve the economy in this country by creating government jobs.

I don't think we should run government based on economists' predictions.

Government is not show business.

You don't grow the economy by growing government.

The economy is not governed with the bottom half in mind.

The remarkable fact is not how much government does to control economic activity, but how much it does not do.

And you can't have a prosperous economy when the government is way overspending, raising tax rates, printing too much money, over regulating and restricting free trade. It just can't be done.

The government can't create jobs; they'll destroy jobs trying to do it. The government doesn't have any money; all they have is a printing press. We need to free markets to create jobs; if the government wants to help, they should reduce their burden on the economy.

We have gotten to the point where everything the government does is counterproductive; the conclusion, of course, is that the government should do nothing at all, that is, should retire quickly from the monetary and economic scene and allow freedom and free markets to work.

This economy is not getting better and the president's policies are the reason.
