'We need to hear more serious ideas' The expert: Tom Szaky The company: Founder, TerraCycle "Mitt Romney, as an entrepreneur who has built a growing business over the past 10 years, I am increasingly annoyed by your comments that you know how to get this economy moving again because you worked in the 'real' economy. "Other than telling me that you will cut taxes, which I am not convinced you can pay for, you have given me absolutely no reason to believe you have a real plan. Sitting in the real economy, where my company actually does create jobs, I am entirely unmoved by your rationale for why you should become our next president. One thing is clear to me: you will say anything to anyone to get elected. "President Obama, I know you inherited a mess, and I applaud your first term in office as one that has gotten the country headed in the right direction. That said, I want to hear more from you on how government can create the conditions that will allow entrepreneurship in America to thrive again. "We need to hear more serious and thoughtful ideas, beyond altering the tax code or hiring more math and science teachers, on how capital can more easily get into the hands of those who will use it best to start more businesses, hire more workers, and help strengthen their communities."
