Andy Biggs said "Previously, some of my counterparts in debate have said we should supply every need, the Federal Government should supply every need to every American, and now they want to persist in trying to satisfy the needs and wants of people offshore, as well. We can't afford to take care of every need of every American today. That is why we have a $2 trillion structural deficit. That does not include the $700 billion that we are spending in interest. We simply cannot afford to keep giving our future away, and that is what we are doing here. Mr. Chair, I reserve the balance of my time." @ PoliticalQuotes.com
