Our solemn responsibility is to hold government accountable to taxpayers.
Long term, that is obviously what is going to help us the most.
Americans deserve an efficient, effective government that works for them.
Thank you, Mr. Chairman. Gentlemen, thank you for being here.
Is it wrong to ever actually balance the budget? Should that be a goal to balance the budget?
Can the Federal Government step into a religious institution and redefine their doctrine for them?
My concern is...the term 'primary balance' and 'sustainable debts and deficits' gives the clear impression we will never balance.
Can the Federal Government reach into a church or religious institution and define for them their doctrine?
This is not an issue of limiting... that true religion is this; that we watch out for the orphans and widows in their distress.
Can any administration step into a church and say, 'I disagree with your doctrine; you will change it to mine?'
I do agree with you, by the way. This is a long-look issue.
