| Message | I'm open to questions on cuts and hikes. The largest hike that might cause the most eyebrows to raise is in Trade and Industry, but as you may know we currently have a policy of public ownership of most industries, and it's only reasonable that we fund them accordingly. |

| Random quote: "In a sense we have come to our nation's capital to cash a cheque. When the architects of our republic wrote the magnificent words of the Constitution and the Declaration of Independence, they were signing a promissory note to which every American was to fall heir. This note was a promise that all men, yes, black men as well as white men, would be guaranteed the unalienable rights of life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness." - Martin Luther King Jr. |
