We can begin to establish high-performance workplaces as the models, the rules, if you will, for our country's new economy.

Our responsibility, it seems to me, as I said in my speech, is to create the most favorable economic conditions.

The most precious asset any nation has is the people who live there.

I can't promise anybody that's in a tough global economy job security.
