The path the Government is on is finally working. Our deficit, which was far too high, has narrowed to the point where it is once again again manageable. The cost of borrowing has significantly decreased. Most important, the people who are looking for work can now see that a significant number of their peers have found jobs. They can see that a government which creates 6,000 jobs per month can create 7,000 jobs per month and continue on.
