I appreciate very much the anxiety about jobs. What I am saying is that the foundation has been laid for jobs.

I appreciate very much the anxiety about jobs. What I am saying is that the foundation has been laid for jobs. It has not been easy because we inherited a bankrupt economy but because of the ingenuity of the people I am working with, we have been able to lay a good foundation.
