As your US Senator, Im not in the business of creating jobs.

We have put in so much entitlement into our government that we really have spoiled our citizenryand said, you don't want the jobs that are available.

And we know that once we have a majority that are dependent upon the government, we will lose our freedom; it says we go into bondage. That's the next stage.

And that's really what's happening in this country is a violation of the First Commandment. We have become a country entrenched in idolatry, and that idolatry is the dependency upon our government. We're supposed to depend upon God for our protection and our provision and for our daily bread, not for our government.

People ask me, "What are you going to do to develop jobs in your state?" Well, that's not my job as a US senator...

Certainly, the job of a U.S. senator is to create a climate conducive to creating jobs, which is lower taxes and less government regulation. What Harry Reid has been doing is putting forward those policies that actually put more regulation on business.

The Federal Department of Education should be eliminated. The Department of Education is unconstitutional and should not be involved in education, at any level.
