I had a couple of million dollars' worth of... stock once. And now it's not worth much more than wallpaper. I guess I just wasn't born to be rich.

One of the reasons inequality gets so deep in this country is that everyone wants to be rich. That's the American ideal.

This debt crisis coming to our country. The wall and tidal wave of debt that is befalling our nation.

President Obama's call for nearly a half-trillion dollars in more government stimulus when America has more than $14 trillion in debt is guided by his mistaken belief that we can spend our way to prosperity.
