On the recordNovember 6, 2003
Business spends what it makes, government spends what it takes, and government should not take taxpayers' money and go into business against them and put these hardworking, tax-paying Americans out of business. The Toomey amendment will help curb this repugnant practice of harming our small businesses. Of course, rehabilitation of prisoners is a worthy goal, but rehabilitation is not the exclusive aim of incarceration. After all, Dostoevsky did not write Crime and Rehabilitation. Thus, we must now write and pass a law to stop government from rehabilitating prisoners by punishing productive Americans. So I urge support of the Toomey amendment.
