“The problem here is that this is not good legislation. For the rest of our lifetime, this $1.2 trillion debt--I think now really $1.27 trillion--will be a burden on our children for years to come, indefinitely. Every penny of this spending is debt. We are already in debt, so we are spending on top of our debt. There is no way we can deny that. It is just not responsible. A smaller, more targeted program, designed to spend out in 2 years, create jobs in an effective way, is something I think we can all support. This legislation--I truly believe we should not do it. I urge my colleagues to study it.”
