I don't like H.R. 1. I had a proposal that indicated that we should take Lee Iacocca's approach and cut everybody across the board some amount.
I do not see any leadership, yesterday or today, as far as submitting an honest proposal before Congress.
I think we all agree that taking more than a year to get appropriated funds out the door is simply unacceptable.
the first stimulus bill was a one-time shot in the arm by the administration, and I think they botched it by not focusing on what was needed or what could be done.
