"those who were responsible for the failure of a bank should not be profiting when stockholders and investors in the bank are taking--forced to take losses."

"not paying any of our bills is default."

"this has never been tried. It has been rejected by all past Treasury secretaries."

"It is a fundamental, basic responsibility of Congress to pay the Government's bills. And I call on Congress to expeditiously raise the debt ceiling."
