This is a difference between being a governor and being in a legislature. Because when something doesn't work in New Jersey, they look at me, say: Why didn't it get done? Why didn't you do it? You have to be responsible and accountable.

What do you think the appropriate role of government is in society? The way I look at this job is, you want me to do X? Well, is the private sector doing X with any kind of success? Because if they are, I'd rather have them do it than have us do it.
