I don't think there are many. The people I represent are either in ag or in the fields, in the mines, in the mills, on the rails. They are blue-collar people who are living an incredibly strong life because those families, the nuclear family, the mom and dad raising children, are the key to our success going forward, and an education. Based on the very foundations of what we know is true, is accurate, has been proven over the ages, the gift that America gave all of its citizens was the gift of education. Mr. Schweikert and I can talk all day. I wish the gallery was full. I really wish the gallery was full. It is not a message of anger. It is a message of hope. We have to change our spending. We cannot sustain this irresponsible trajectory.
