Henry Waxman actually said...

"I think we all understand that there is a need for government and a need for it to have reasonable regulations."

"The rich and powerful want to stay rich and powerful. And the less government gets involved to make things fairer for everybody they will get richer and they will be more powerful."

"And now that we have opened the campaign laws to unlimited and dead-end unreported contributions from corporations, I don't think that the lower income people are going to benefit."

"This country was built on work ethic and character and liberty and all those qualities in past generations."
