I do want the tax system to be efficient and be conducive to growth, which it is not.

I have gotten disturbed at some of the Democrats' anti-business behavior, the sentiment, the attacks on work ethic and successful people. I think it's very counter-productive.

Good regulation should be conducive to business and to customer protection.
