Sen. Marco Rubio explained to Fox News Sunday host Chris Wallace how President Obama’s policies make it harder to start a business and create jobs. The prompt came from Wallace, who asked Rubio to give two examples of how Romney’s policies are better than Obama’s for business start-ups and job creation.
First, Rubio named the debt as something which creates “tremendous worry about the future.” Rubio’s second example was “uncertainty about the tax code.”
“You have a president that constantly goes around the country using the tax code as a weapon for class warfare, dividing Americans against each other,” he said.
Rubio added a third reason as well. “The regulatory environment,” he said, “just the health care law alone is an endless stream of regulations that scare people.” Rubio said small business owners are afraid to hire because they have “no idea” how much it will cost to comply with health care reform.
