...entrepreneurs with a desire to innovate
I didn't watch the debate. I do not have time to watch all of them. My life involves more things than just news and politics. I just read summaries, comments, articles, and other sources when I can.
If he did say that, I don't think he will be able to raise enough money. It costs a lot to do that and I don't think there is enough to complete the mission properly. Also, it raises questions as to who will actually be in control.
My impression is that this is one of those pie in the sky ideas that will never happen. He should have been brought up this idea ages ago so that Newt critics and competitors will not accuse him of vote pandering.
What should be mainly focused on is cutting the debt and getting spending under control.
