The frustration level of the American people, the people in my district, their understanding of the challenges that we face as a nation is truly remarkable. The American people get it. And what they want to see out of Washington is that Washington truly gets it. As we're looking at your chart right now and we go to the revenues that are coming in, the spending which is going out, we're looking at a $1.5 trillion deficit that we are facing. That's going to be going on top of a debt in this country of $14.3 trillion, an unsustainable glide path that is going to take us to economic ruin.
