I don't know what the problem with Capitol is. Some one's got to wake 'em up. Prod 'em a little bit.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
The trouble with capitalism as a system is that only those who have or can get capital can make it work for them, and that leaves out damn near all of us.
The dome of the U.S. Capitol has fallen into severe disrepair... As the Chairman of the Senate Committee on Rules and Administration, which oversees matters of the Capitol's physical plant, I have serious concerns about the consequences of omitting this funding from the stopgap spending measure.
The Capitol was an occasion where you arrive at a sign in the road that says you have arrived at a place you may not have expected to be, but you know how you got here: Next!
I actually enjoy having the Capitol view. We started referring to it as the trillion dollar view.
A wise governor told me a long time ago, political capital you don't get more of by keeping it. You get it by using it.
A lot of people on Capitol Hill don't want to talk to me.
Failure is more frequently from want of energy than want of capital.
Well Washington DC what are you going to do. They think the capitol steps are the state of the art in comedy. You try to drag them into the 20th century let alone the 21st and they refuse to come with you.
We're all concerned about the budget. We're all concerned about what's happening financially in our country. There's no question about it. Congress is working day and night. In fact, every time I go home the lights are on at the top of the Capitol.
If capital and labor ever do get together it's good night for the rest of us.
