It is the policy of the federal government to use all resources at its disposal to make our financial system stronger.
Quote by -Henry Paulson
Our overriding goal in restructuring our financial architecture should be that taxpayers never again have to save a failing financial institution.
Quote by -Henry Paulson
A single agency responsible for systemic risk would be accountable in a way that no regulator was in the run-up to the 2008 crisis. With access to all necessary information to monitor the markets, this regulator would have a better chance of identifying and limiting the impact of future speculative bubbles.
Quote by -Henry Paulson
My preference is for the Federal Reserve to be the systemic risk regulator, because the responsibility for identifying and limiting potential problems is a natural complement to its role in monetary policy.
Quote by -Henry Paulson
When our markets work, people throughout our economy benefit - Americans seeking to buy a car or buy a home, families borrowing to pay for college, innovators borrowing on the strength of a good idea for a new product or technology, and businesses financing investments that create new jobs.
Quote by -Henry Paulson
One of the most constant aspects of American life is change - and nowhere is it more evident than in our financial markets.

Quote by -Henry Paulson
When the economy is growing, there's a lot that can be done to deal with the deficit.
Quote by -Henry Paulson
I've never been antiregulation. I've always believed that raw, unregulated capitalism doesn't work.
Quote by -Henry Paulson
An open, competitive, and liberalized financial market can effectively allocate scarce resources in a manner that promotes stability and prosperity far better than governmental intervention.
Quote by -Henry Paulson
From the beginning of time, we've had financial crises. People always blame the banks and for good reason. When you look for the root causes, they're almost always failed government policies.
Quote by -Henry Paulson
I have always tried to live by the philosophy that when there is a big problem that needs fixing, you should run towards it, rather than away from it.
Quote by -Henry Paulson

Quote by -Henry Paulson

Quote by -Lord Byron
If it's hard for Blue America to see Red America as anything other than a bunch of dumb, racist rednecks; it's hard for Red America to recognize that many minorities are legitimately worried about what a Trump presidency means for their family.
Quote by -J. D. Vance
In 2012, General Dempsey, General Petraeus directed the CIA, Secretary Panetta and Secretary Clinton recommended to the president to robustly arm and train the Syrian moderates. He says no. In 2013, conduct a military strike, same national security team, against the Assad regime because he violated the chemical red line. He says no.
Quote by -Jack Keane
Afghanistan is where much of the al Qaeda journey began. It is the main site where Osama bin Laden, Mullah Omar and their cohort rose to prominence fighting the Soviets in the 1980s. Afghan territory holds special significance to the group, which is committed to retaking it and re-establishing it as the base of a global movement.

Quote by -Jack Keane
In the early 2009, a campaign plan developed by Petraeus and General McChrystal to defeat the Taliban, they required a minimum force of 40,000. President Obama rejected that recommendation and provided 25 percent less. He also decided he would pull the force out in 12 to 15 months.
Quote by -Jack Keane
If we have the intent to use the military only when needed, then that also becomes, then, therefore, a credible deterrent.
Quote by -Jack Keane
Senator Clinton is very knowledgeable about national security and is probably going to be strong on defense. I have no doubts whatsoever that if she were president in January '09, she would not act irresponsibly and issue orders to conduct an immediate withdrawal from Iraq, regardless of the consequences, and squander the gains that have been made.
