This was the first question in the GOP undercard debate last night:
SMITH: Alright, that’s it, so let’s begin with Governor Christie. Governor, economically, our country is struggling with some of the most anemic growth we have seen on record. More than 90 million Americans are unemployed, or they are not in the workforce altogether.
The number of people now willing, able, and wanting to go to work is at a level that has fallen to a level we have not been since the 1970’s. For those that are working, wages aren’t budging while other things, costs, like housing, remain high.
As President, what concrete steps will you take to get America back to work.
