Government on its own is always inefficient.

We need to get out of the way of the small business owner - and big business owners - and allow them to do what government can only dream of doing: creating jobs and thereby creating wealth.

There isn't one thing the federal government does that anybody in Big Business would emulate, at least not in the profit sector.

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

Governments take too long to get things done and there are far too many varied interests at stake. If you were starting a business today and needed a partner, you would never choose a large bureaucratic institution like the government.

It's businesses versus big government. We don't need big government. We need a more efficient, lean government, and that's exactly the kind of government we intend to deliver.

Government is inherently incompetent, and no matter what task it is assigned, it will do it in the most expensive and inefficient way possible.

We need to focus on the speed with which local governments can work with businesses.

My task as a citizen is to get the government to do more good and less inefficient and wasteful work.

It's been said that government doesn't create jobs, business does. For the most part, this is true. But government creates the environment in which businesses can excel and expand.
