“I would like to talk about several issues which have either not been covered enough lately or not covered in the appropriate way. The first thing I would like to talk about is the loan forgiveness program and the recent change in the law increasing public loan forgiveness. When my constituents back home ask me, what is the biggest problem? I say, well, we certainly have problems with the economy, we certainly have problems with education, we certainly have problems with crime-- but I say the biggest problem is we are in a moral breakdown in this country. I would like to address the way the loan forgiveness program and public loan forgiveness is changing America, I think, for the worst. The first thing I would like to address is the fact that this institution has apparently felt that you are a lot better off, or it should be much easier for you to have your loan forgiven if you work for a nonprofit organization or a governmental entity. Now, whenever I go around my district, the manufacturers, the farmers, a couple of big insurance companies, they are all looking for more people to work. But the message out of Washington is, don't work for business, which, after all, is the engine that really makes our country go around. It shows kind of a hatred for manufacturers, a hatred for agriculture, a hatred of retail, a hatred of insurance.…”
