Are we smart enough at the Postal Service to come up with new products or innovations?

What we need here is not more process; what we need here is not to deal just with the symptoms of the problem.

We want to be fair, but we also want--it is tough love. It is like a tough love situation. I think we need to be tough. We need to provide the example.

We face a situation with the Postal Service literally running out of money, running out of cash later this year.

we appreciate your testimony.

What criteria does GSA use to determine whether an agency should have delegated authority?

The symptom is the debt crisis, debt ceiling crisis... the cause... is the fact that we do not spend money wisely.

this is not the sexiest topic to be holding a hearing on.

We have a tendency around here to focus on addressing symptoms rather than addressing underlying... cause of disease.

I would ask you, Mr. Wise, I am going to ask you to walk us through why we have this incentive, I think a misincentive, disincentive?

What would be the consequences if the SEC were required to go through GSA for all future lease acquisitions?
