Well, the truth is one of the paths is grow, grow, grow. Goes to that spirit that you talked about. That's where I think as a great leader of a state, you can at least help

in that regard where if you're depressing economic growth then your debt to gdp ratio becomes even worse because your gdp growth rates are lower so one of the areas to focus on is just robust economic growth through mass deregulation through mass unlocking of private sector potential through slashing and burning bureaucracy wherever necessary and that's one positive side on the other side though glenn you raise a good point here

I would just say there are ways to rationalize the budget that actually lift people up in the process. I'll give you one example, and I'm going to lead the way here in Ohio on this front, is reattaching work requirements to welfare, Medicaid, and other forms of aid. I think it is not compassion. It is cruelty to increase somebody's dependence on the government.

The way we're going to save our country is not through greater dependence on the government, but independence from it. We're not victims. We have this victimhood mentality that then justifies that dependence. We're done with that victimhood culture. We got to move on. We're victors, not victims. We don't whine. We win. You help somebody stand up on their own two feet. That's a great way.

You're looking at a lot of the spending in Medicaid, a lot of spending in welfare. That's a great way to bring down spending. But even more importantly, it is an even better way to help those Americans to actually realize the American dream rather than to be permanently dependent on a state that serves as a ceiling for what they're able to achieve in their lives.

And there are a lot of that does have to be done and led at the state level. The federal government, there's a role to play. But I think there's also an important role for what does a leader look like who has the spine to step up and actually do that? Ohio is a state that doesn't have work requirements attached to Medicaid right now. That needs to change.
