A Quote by Tina Brown

You can't have 23 million people struggling to get a job. You can't have an economy that over the last three years keeps slowing down its growth rate.

I have to tell you, I live paycheck to paycheck like most Americans. It's very difficult for me to say, 'Hey, I can give up my paycheck,' because the reality is, I have financial obligations that I have to meet on a month-to-month basis that doesn't make it possible for me.
