My first priority is growing this economy in the long term, and stimulating it in the short term.

I believe wealth should be in the hands of those who know how to create more wealth.

If you want to help the poor and our next generation, make investment, reinvestment and businesses welcome.

I am in favor of helping the prosperity of all countries because, when we are all prosperous, the trade with each becomes more valuable to the other.

It's time to create an Economic Growth Code whose purpose is to fix and grow the economy, not redistribute massive amounts of wealth.

At the end of the day, yes, I'm looking to create a lot of wealth.

I do believe in tax incentives in order to move the economy forward.

I am absolutely a free marketeer and I believe the creation of wealth is a good thing and anyone who doesn't really needs to have their head examined - otherwise where are we going to get the schools, the roads, the universities, the third runway, dare I say it?

Perhaps concentrated wealth will inspire a nation of innovative problem-solvers. But if the view of many economists is right - that it sometimes discourages innovation - then we should worry.

What I believe in, in terms of getting our economy going again, is that we need to invest in opportunity today for prosperity tomorrow.
