I support the Ryan budget plan. I think itโs the right direction on the major points. I canโt say Iโve read all of it, but on the major thrust of what heโs doing, I support what he wants to do with Medicare, Medicaid. The only thing I would do, frankly, as Iโve said publicly many times, I think we should implement a lot of these things sooner than what heโs suggesting.

Rick SantorumI heard governor Romney here called me an economic lightweight because I wasn't a Wall Street financier like he was. Do you really believe this country wants to elect a Wall Street financier as the president of the United States? Do you think that's the experience that we need? Someone who's going to take and look after as he did his friends on Wall Street and bail them out at the expense of Main Street America.
Rick SantorumThe more moral the people are in their business dealings, the less paperwork you need, the more handshakes you can have, the more the wheels of capitalism work better because there's trust in the marketplace. Business ethics is not a joke. And, in fact, I think most businesses that I've dealt with encourage exactly that type of behavior.
