One of the things that bothers me most is the growing belief in the country that security is more important than freedom. It ain't. ↗

I mean, the reality is unemployment today - over 14 million Americans are unemployed. That's exactly what it was a year ago. I mean, this - the American people know we can't borrow and spend and bail our way back to a growing economy. ↗
