Mark Kennedy: “And I do not buy it either. And I agree with the gentleman as it relates to the people out there creating jobs.…”

“And I do not buy it either. And I agree with the gentleman as it relates to the people out there creating jobs. Hard-working families know a whole lot better how to spend money to create jobs and to provide for their families than we ever will here in Washington, and the gentleman's many examples just proved the point. Mr. Speaker, amongst the wisest words I have heard here was during my freshman year we had a speaker come in, a George Will, who some of my colleagues may have had the opportunity to read his columns, and he tried to make things understandable for us, because sometimes it is hard to understand some of the verbiage that we hear. He said, you will find that on most issues, that the battle of ideas is between freedom on one side and people telling you that you need them here in Washington to keep bringing the gravy train to you, or, said another way, dependency, we are going to cultivate dependency. And if my colleagues listened tonight, they heard that.”
