We are spending $1 billion a week in Iraq.

We spend billions of pounds on welfare, yet millions are trapped on welfare. It's not worth their while going into work.

Generosity has built America. When we fail to invest in children, we have to pay the cost.

Now we are raising the debt limit 3 times, up to $8 trillion, so that our children and our grandchildren will have to pay for the cost of our expenditures.

Thanks to decades of accumulated federal budget deficits and, more significantly, imprudent Medicare and Social Security policies, we've stolen almost $60 trillion from our children.

We build schools and give government loans and grants to college kids; for those of us who are parents, tuition will often be the last big subsidy we give the children we've raised.

Seven hundred and sixteen billion dollars, funneled out of Medicare by President Obama. An obligation we have to our parents and grandparents is being sacrificed, all to pay for a new entitlement we didn't even ask for. The greatest threat to Medicare is Obamacare, and we're going to stop it.

When George W. Bush entered office, the national debt was $5 trillion. When he left, it was $10 trillion. I think the administration spent too much money.

Something's very wrong with a nation that would rather spend money on war than take care of its children.

Now some are saying maybe $1.6 trillion in is not enough maybe we should look at $2 trillion.
