Comments

I want to see lower teenage unemployment before I can declare that we have restored our economy. I prefer no additional jobs in government, education and healthcare.
I prefer to add 9 million more manufacturing jobs and 3 million more mining, oil and gas drilling, logging, skilled trades and construction jobs.
