‘We don’t want the interest rates on these loans to double in this economy. We don’t want today’s graduates to have to suffer any more than they already are as a result of this President’s failure to turn the economy around more than three years into office. The only question is how to pay for it. Democrats want to pay for it by raiding Social Security and Medicare, and by making it even harder for small businesses to hire. We happen to think that at a time when millions of Americans — and countless college students — can’t even find a decent job, it makes no sense whatsoever to punish the very businesses we’re counting on to hire them. It’s counterproductive, and it’s wrong.’
‘So today, the President will bring his latest poll-tested message to the students at UNC. And I’m sure he’ll give a very rousing speech, full of straw men and villains who stand in the way of their dreams. I’m sure he’ll also express his strong support for things that all of us agree on. But what he won’t talk about is the extent to which the decisions he’s made are limiting their opportunities in the years ahead.’
‘Look: at a time when America’s corporate income tax is now the highest in the world, we should be looking for ways to make it easier for businesses to hire, not harder. At a time when unemployment is above 13 percent for young people between the ages of 20-24 in this country, we should be finding ways to make it more likely they can find work, not harder. But this is the Obama economy. This is President Obama’s approach. This is the painful legacy of his failed economic policies. The President may not want to discuss it. But Republicans will.’
