Rahm Emanuel

great economy is built on the rule of law, great education, great research at our great universities and the capacity to both find the talent,

the kind of level playing field that the rule law gives and the certainty it gives, and also the ideas that are coming out of the golden goose called our university system.

And every one of you, but one or two, to the person, have been incredibly timid souls, to quote Teddy Roosevelt.

I have lost, and I know this in respect, so they've decided for their short-term stock, I suppose, and I don't want to say all of corporate America,

But for a whole host of reasons, and I've heard them say things in private to me, but for a whole host of reasons, they've decided to bite their tongue.

And I will tell you, this will come home to roost.

Okay, you said people there, and I wasn't sure what you were saying.

I'm serious.

I wasn't sure what you were talking about.

I think one of the things, my analysis is both parties got it wrong.

I'm saying this shorthand.

But the Republican parties are dominated by a monopolist mindset.

And our party is starting to get dominated by a bunch of Marxists.

And both Marxism and monopolists don't serve the economy well.

I think generically – this is generic at 10,000 feet without a name to it.

Democrats don't talk about growth and should be the party that talks and actually executes growth versus redistribution.

I happen to think –

Education is core to growth.

Investing in our energy capacity...

is core to our growth as is modernizing our infrastructure is core to our growth.
