In my FAMILY, we drew names for Christmas presents. Unthinkable today. But we were happy to get one gift.

This bill will harm many, many people.

Americans will die because of the provisions in this bill.

And our country will not be competitive because universities will not survive without the graduate assistants who cannot afford to pay tuition. And it is the universities that produce the scientists and the intellectuals who make progress possible in so many areas. Industry needs employees who are intelligent and have obtained advanced degrees and the knowledge those degrees represent.

Criminal bill. Nothing less.

Shame on the Republicans.

Bunch of stupid business majors. Don't even speak any language other than English, most of them.

They’ll be back whining about the debt and need for more program and “entitlement” cuts before the ink’s even dry on this monstrosity. Gods, I hate these fuckers.
