To foster entrepreneurship, expansion and job creation, more leaders at all levels of government have to demonstrate some understanding of what it takes to build and grow businesses in the private sector.

I believe the private sector and small businesses drive our economy, and that means the federal government should work to ensure the private sector is as robust as possible.

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.

I'm a liberal, but I think there's so much that the private sector can do and does do.

When the private does well, there's revenue for the public sector.

We have accepted there is a big role for government to create a framework where businesses can grow in all parts of the country.

My administration will continue to engage the private sector to increase economic opportunities and look for ways to improve our already top notch business environment.

If I could create one job in the private sector by helping to grow a business, that would be one more than Congress has created in the last six months.

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.

Prosperity comes from the private sector.
