The Carter years were a nightmare.

If you really want to deal with children in poverty, get the economy growing, stop the inflation, cut taxes.

I can't imagine a dumber moment to increase federal spending than in the middle of an inflationary crisis.

What works is balancing the budget, what works is having a maximum number of able-bodied Americans going to work.

I have always said that 'build back poorer' would be a much more accurate title for that bill.

What we don't need is a government dominated, Washington centered system of once again trying to impose big government socialism on the whole country.

I think the British coming out of World War II, did a pretty decent job of organizing entry level healthcare.

the key is to find a way for people to rise so they never go off a cliff of losing so many government subsidies that it is now worth their while to go to work.

We have got to help families, we have got to get our inflation under control, but we also have to understand we have got to quit spending for our families, for our children.

I think we are totally unprepared in Washington for thinking through the implications of the largest debt holder in the world suddenly deliberately raising interest rates.

Inflation is too much paper money chasing too few goods and services.

The greatest problem Washington has today is its inability to learn what works and what fails in the real world.
