Jeb wants Americans to work longer hours in order to fix the mess politicians have made of the economy:

Jeb Bush: People Need to Work Longer Hours - ABC News

Meanwhile, brother George and Laura Bush charged a combined $150,000 to speak at separate wounded Veteran's charities. On top of that, George requested an additional $20,000 for a private jet to fly to Houston:

To Help US Veterans Charity, George W. Bush Charged $100,000 - ABC News

Interestingly enough, Bill Clinton and George H. Bush never requested money to speak at Veteran's
groups.

The GOP is going to get absolutely CRUSHED if they nominate another Bush. When is the GOP every going to nominate someone that the general public can identify with? Romney and McCain were terrible choices and they're going to do it yet again with Jebbie.

So instead of working the 50-60 hours per week that many jobs require, we should be working 80 hours per week? Is that what Jeb expects of us? Never spend anytime with your family ever and just work constantly? I did that garbage for two years when I worked at a CPA firm, and when I left I vowed I would never work more than 40 hours a week at a job. Life is too short.

Jeb Bush would be the same as voting for a democrat

He's an entitled rich guy. He never worked hard. Nope not voting for him.

Kind of hard to trust any of these politicians.

"Jeb says Americans need to work longer hours while brother George charged $100,000 to speak at Veterans charity"

"Jeb wants Americans to work longer hours in order to fix the mess politicians have made of the economy"

"Meanwhile, brother George and Laura Bush charged a combined $150,000 to speak at separate wounded Veteran's charities. On top of that, George requested an additional $20,000 for a private jet to fly to Houston"

Deflect from what exactly?

Looks like W's speaking fees are a bargain.

Clintons have made more than $25 million for speaking since January 2014 - The Washington Post
