“One to the Fed: Get your foot off the brake and let the economy grow. Second to Congress: Pass the Federal Reserve bill and stop people from voting down at the Open Market Committee who are not accountable to the American people.

Appoint my Uncle Joe, for that matter. Or appoint some people who believe that we should start this economic engine, and get it running, in order to provide new jobs, opportunity, and new economic growth.”
