"We don’t want to turn the safety net into a hammock that lulls able-bodied people to lives of dependency and complacency..."
"Big-government economics breeds crony capitalism. It's corrupt, anything but neutral, and a barrier to broad participation in prosperity."

That's not entrepreneurial economics. That's not helping small businesses. That's cronyism, that's corporate welfare."
"What matters to me is that I do what I think is right and I see, I'm a numbers guy, that's my attitude. I know we have a debt tsunami coming, we are bankrupting this country and I'm in a position where I can actually advance ideas to prevent that from happening. That's exactly what I should be doing."
