We should have cut corporate taxes, Congressman Sessions says

In response to my question of whether or not lowering taxes were a quick fix or not, Congressman Pete Sessions (R-TX) says I asked him an interesting question. If you are competitive in what you do, and someone else in this competitive world does something, you respond, he says.
