Mr. Speaker, you know, this is a piece of legislation that unfortunately we have tried 2\1/2\ years, way too long, to try to get through this body; but it also opens an important conversation about taking a look at all of these charters…

I thank the chairman for yielding. The Miami Tribe's current charter of incorporation is an outdated governing structure that harms business and economic development. We wrote this bill because these charters can only be removed literally…

I mean, I am a business owner. I understand when we fell. I understand when we make a mistake.

What if that was your daughter? I have got three at home. I can tell you what it is worth.

Well, it seems like, to me, if more of them went to jail, that might prohibit them from going through.

So do you think there is a better way--quickly, because I am running out of time, is there a better way to handle this, then?

That is a very polite way of saying the old guy, and I appreciate that, Mr. Chairman.

The big difference is interest rates. We don't have 18 or 20 percent interest that a farmer told me Jesus Christ himself couldn't pay 20 percent interest.

I think what's important--part of that mission said that the Federal government probably ought to have is how do you start eliminating those programs that make sense to eliminate--to wean that dependency on Federal structure.
