“people want to know how did we get into this painful economy. Too many of our fellow citizens borrowed too much. They spent too much, and they couldn't pay it back. And now the mistakes of individuals, the Democrats want to force upon us collectively. Mr. Speaker, you cannot borrow and spend your way into prosperity. Even the Democrats' own Congressional Budget Office says H.R. 1 is the single greatest spending bill in the history of America, will leave us the greatest debt in the history of America, and ultimately, will hurt our economy, leaving a legacy of debt, crushing debt for future generations. The Republicans want to stimulate the economy by helping small business. The Democrats want to stimulate big government. The Democrats want to spend millions on urban canals. The Republicans want to spend millions on small businesses like Williams Paint and Body, to preserve and grow 21 jobs. Democrats want to spend $300 million to buy government bureaucrats new cars. Republicans want to spend money on Terry Manufacturing, to preserve and secure 20 new jobs. Big government or small business? Choose small business.”
