Spending bills = Full room Accountability lectures = Empty room

He is talking to an empty room. It doesn’t get worse than this.
-
The US Government has no intention on paying this back.
-
At least one person understands reality and is willing to speak up.
-
This is Insane! Shame on all politicians, red, blue, and white.
-
I really don't know anything about anything. All I know is at 25 I constantly feel like I'm dying, working 2 jobs, barely able to afford food. It shouldn't be like this.
-
Look at the emptiness of this room.
-
Every member of congress is to blame for this mess
-
It was at one time ILLEGAL for government to take/borrow money from SOCIAL SECURITY...SEE THE GREED of those who CHANGED that law for their OWN BENEFIT...
-
I appreciate you, David Schweikert. Thank you for speaking up in congress.
-
When it was $3 trillion, there was a chance to pay it off. Now at $35 trillion, that won't happen. We are looking at a grim future as a Nation.
-
Every single one of those seats should be filled. There's no excuse for not showing up to the company meeting.
-
Congress should have to pay back that 35 trillion dollar because there are the ignorant People that spend it. If I have the self-control not to overspend my money and I live on $10 worth of food a day. Then why the hell is my Congress burning through so freaking? Much money that I'm soon. Not even going to be able to afford $5 worth of food a day. And I live here in America. I work a 40 hour job. And I can't even afford rent or food. I can barely afford the car. It takes to get me to my job.
-
35 Trillion- one of the very few bipartisan efforts.
-
All this government does is make me feel like a chump for working an honest living.
-
This guy is one of the only politicians I ever see arguing from evidence instead of rhetoric.
-
The USA has no hope left, this country is at the absolute verge of an economic collapse
-
It's so cool knowing that 75% of my federal taxes go to interest payments.
