PORTION of REMARKS by REP. KEVIN BRADY – Hi, I’m Congressman Kevin Brady. I’m proud to represent southeast Texas in Congress, and serve as the lead House Republican on the Joint Economic Committee, which keeps tabs on America’s economic health.

There are three big myths hurtling around Washington these days: no jobs equals an economic recovery, government-run health care will make it more affordable and deficits don’t matter.

The American public – to their credit – isn’t buying any of these.

Start with the economy. We’re all pleased to see the stock market go up, but middle class America knows hundreds of thousands of jobs are disappearing each month. Many of them may never reappear.

As families in my communities and across the country watch the national unemployment rate close to topping double digits — with very few real signs of relief ahead — they have one question for the White House: ‘Mr. President, where are the jobs?’

NEW ORLEANS, LOUISIANA – Representative Ron Paul of Texas spoke to a packed crowd of students in Nunemaker Hall located on Loyola’s main campus this past Wednesday. The lecture covered monetary policy of the FEDERAL RESEVE and our nation’s continued foreign policies, both issues that brought throngs of formerly apathetic voters to his 2007 campaign for the Republican Presidential Nomination.

In addition, Dr. Paul offers his opinion on the economic recovery policies begun under former President George W. Bush and continued under President Obama, and the effectiveness of such programs as “Cash for Clunkers”. The lecture  runs approximately sixty-minutes and is contained in its entirety within the YouTube video Playlist below.
