mr. reagan's. but history shows president reagan was successful in reviving the american economy. so that's why mr. obama's policies are a bit perplexing. in june, just 80,000 jobs are created in the u.s.a., according to the bureau of lash labor statistics, 85,000 left the marketplace in order to get disability payments. since june of 2009, there have been 2.6 million jobs created in america. but 3.1 million people have gone on disability. the math is clear. american workers are leaving their jobs to get paid by the taxpayers. disability payments are at a record rate. that's a disaster for america. yet, mr. obama continues to believe that he can tax his way out of the situation that raising taxes on the wealthy will somehow stimulate the economy. but, listen to this. say president obama gets his way, and he is able to raise taxes on those making more than $250,000 a year? say that that rate hike would generate about $85 billion a year in increased revenue. but right now, the feds are spending $85 billion every 8 and a half days. according to the treasury department. so it's all a r

reagan zone of economic freedom. not the romney zone of economic freedom, mr. romney does not have that sort of power yet. obama in his foreign policy team have pursued a policy of taken china's misbehavior to the world trade organization to try to stop china from cheating wherever possible and question their human rights, but romney thinks that turns america into a door mat. he thinks president obama is letting china walk all over him. he would not push china on that wto stuff. his solution instead is to create a reagan zone. a reagan zone for all of the countries around china. while it is extremely unlikely china would join the reagan zone, our offer to allow china to join would modify their trade and industrial behavior. seriously, that's the plan. it's up there on the current campaign website. we create the zone, china says no to the zoin, but to the zone still gets china to participate in free trade on fair terms because, you know, reagan! but governor romney's reagan zone has been badly outdone in their devotion to those two magical words that solve problems by their very incantation. the prize for m
