Jeff Greenfield - Conservatives may worship Adam Smith's 'invisible hand,' but for Obama...

Jeff Greenfield Zitate

Conservatives may worship Adam Smith's 'invisible hand,' but for Obama, the helping hand comes in large measure from the public, not the private sector. To call this 'socialism' is to do violence to the word and to the concept. To call it 'un-American' is a smear.

Deutsche Übersetzung

Konservative mögen die unsichtbare Hand von Adam Smith verehren, aber für Obama kommt die helfende Hand zu einem großen Teil von der Öffentlichkeit und nicht vom privaten Sektor. Diesen "Sozialismus" zu nennen, bedeutet, dem Wort und dem Konzept Gewalt zuzufügen. Es ist ein Abstrich, es als "unamerikanisch" zu bezeichnen.

I spent my whole life in the private sector, 25 years in the private sector. I understand that when government takes more money out of the hands of people, it makes it more difficult for them to buy things. If they can't buy things, the economy doesn't grow. If the economy doesn't grow, we don't put Americans to work.

There is definitely a need for increasing capacity in higher education; a large part of this is being met in the technical education segment by the private sector and in the non-technical by the state sector. In the public sector, we will do whatever we can afford.

To jump-start our economy, we must leave cash in your hands - because if you've got money in your pocket, you'll spend it at the hardware store or the corner market, and that will drive job growth in our private sector.
