How do you inform these people that are hurting, that are suffering? How do you inform them?

Clearly, the government should never be in the business of taking money from people who have never violated the law.

I would like to thank you for holding this hearing. Thank you. I am pleased to have the Commissioner testifying before us today.

We could not have done better in picking out two Americans that got a bad deal from our government.

I have always tried to be very honest and upright in everything I do. And I just really--well, I don't have much faith in the government.
