Political Quotes

“Madam Speaker, we have been talking all day about this bill that is that 2,700-page Senate bill, this bill that increases bureaucracies and bureaucrats and gives more government power and more government control. We know the American people don't like it, and we are speaking against it. But that is not bad enough. At the same time, using this convoluted parliamentary procedure, our Democratic colleagues want to have the government take over the student lending business, build up bigger bureaucracy, wipe out 30,000 private sector jobs, make the Department of Education one of the largest banks in the country lending $100 billion a year of money that we don't have, money that we have to borrow from China before we can lend it to students. So whether it is health care or it is student lending, we are watching a massive growth of government power, size, and spending, and I deem that unacceptable. ____________________”
