This is really basic; is people looking in on this hearing, what's left, looking in, you know, do we have a right to know how many citizens there are in this country, is pretty basic.

I appreciate this effort, and I appreciate you presenting a budget that is at least the first step in this long stairway of getting financially independent and not leaving our children with a $70,000 debt for every man, woman, and child in…

It is the right thing to do. Now is the time. I applaud the gentleman for having these pictures. This brings it to life.
