“Thank you to the gentleman from Iowa for offering this important amendment. The liberal talking point in the debate thus far has gone something like this: We can't defund ObamaCare today because we have to focus on job creation. Now, that is very interesting, coming from the liberals in this Chamber who spent literally trillions of dollars out of the public Treasury only to see 2 million jobs lost in the private sector because of their failed policies on job creation. ObamaCare will likely create the largest government bureaucracy in the history of our country, filled with even more government jobs than any other agency. There is one thing that ObamaCare will likely do very, very well, and it's this: It will create the largest bureaucracy of government workers in the history of the Nation. It isn't that we will necessarily get more doctors; it isn't that ObamaCare will necessarily give us more nurses or truly more health care. What we will get from ObamaCare, according to the Congressional Budget Office, is increased costs in health care with a huge bureaucracy, all designed for the purpose likely of saying ``no'' to people when they need to have access to health care. What a bargain, Mr. Chairman. Pay more, get less. That's the reason why I believe the Rasmussen poll came out last week and said that 58 percent of the American people are begging this Congress to repeal ObamaCare. Repeal we will, and defund we must.”
