Ford Jr.: Dems’ ‘Better Deal’ Agenda Is a ‘Decent Try’ But It ‘Misses the Point’

‘If you talk to big business, small business, alike, they all want smarter and fewer regulation’

EXCERPT:

FORD JR.: "I think it’s a decent try, but it misses the point. I think a lot of times voters hear when Democrats talk about pro-growth and pro-jobs and pro-consumer, Democrats almost talk about it in ways that they think those three aims are inherently and permanently in conflict. If you talk to big business, small business, alike, they all want smarter and fewer regulation. The only way they can create jobs, which is to generate a profit, create jobs, pay taxes, is if you create a business climate where these things can happen. And for some reason, when Democrats talk about these things, they sound as if they are talking about each of them in silos. I think they miss the point."
