We have mountain of debt that isn't going away and all the problems are here to stay, and anybody who tells you that is a good thing ought to get out of the business of helping the government down the road.

I personally think money in politics on any level is horrible. I'd like to see a set amount and have every candidate spend it. Have it be completely transparent. But actually getting to that spot, as we have learned through all the legislation over the decades, is very difficult.

I try to avoid political ties.

When you are facing the wilderness on your own, you have a totally different attitude to someone who works in government or who has a monthly cheque.

The jobs outlook in the U.S. isn't very good. And it's really about young people.

You need more people to perpetuate a myth because if the people stop the myth is known to all.

I'm pretty darn happy with my day job.
