Detroit News: on Budget & Economy


Jeb Bush: 6-year recovery has been slower than other comebacks

Bush said he's worried about the slow pace of the six-year economic recovery in comparison with other comebacks since World War II, which has resulted in a drop in median income and millions of people giving up looking for a job. "The recovery has been everywhere but in the family paychecks," Bush said.

"The central question we face here in Detroit and across America is this: Can we restore that dream--that moral promise--that each generation can do better?" Bush outlined what he called a set of principles embracing "reform everywhere, especially in our government," giving more power to the states to solve problems and relying less on directives from the federal government.
