Elaine Chao on Budget & Economy

	Elaine Chao on Budget & Economy Secretary of Labor (Pres. Bush Cabinet)

Reckless tax and spend strategy is hazardous for economy

President George W. Bush's labor secretary, Elaine Chao had tough words for the incoming Obama administration's massive stimulus package, which included tens of billions of dollars for transportation. "Beneath the warm and fuzzy bipartisan rhetoric is the same old tax-and-spend crowd that has now taken control of our government and is implementing policies that will turn our country into Europe," Chao told activists at the annual Conservative Political Action Conference in 2009.
