“In the President's pivot back to jobs last week, he told a crowd that America has fought its way back 5 years after the start of the Great Recession. Five years ago, unemployment was at 5 percent; today it's as 6\1/2\. Five years ago, the national poverty rate was at 12\1/2\ percent; today it exceeds 15 percent. Five years ago, 30 million Americans received food stamps; today 47.8 million are enrolled. We are no way back to where we were before the 2008 collapse, and it's the President's economic agenda that is pushing us further into danger. As a business owner for 42 years, I've been on the receiving end of these job-killing policies, and I know what it will take to get the economy back on track. We need true tax reform, we need to get the government out of health care, we need to energize the energy business, and we need to make sure our military remains fully funded, well equipped, and the best in the world. We should never accept 7.6 percent as the normal level for unemployment or a 15 percent poverty rate; and we should never accept an economy that creates more food stamps than jobs. In God we trust. ____________________”
