There are three legs of the stool; spending, entitlements and making the tax code fair and equitable. That's the three legs of the stool. If we do all of those in a responsible, bipartisan way, I think the American people would all be very, very happy.

Many countries struggle and never get to the point where people have faith that laws are executed fairly.

Frankly, earmarking is not the problem. It is a symptom of the problem.

It is critical that the American people, and not just their financial institutions, be represented at the negotiating table.
