- statement from the crowd: I don't want national health care. Why should my money pay for people that practice bad habits? (Oh how I wanted to shout "you already do you idiot"
- after a statement about the debt to the Chinese (which Grassley brushed off as 'insignificant') the questioner stated 'something has to be done about the difference in wages between the US and China.' And then he said (i kid you not) 'we need to bring the US wages more in line with the Chinese.'
- Old lady next to me started going on and on about 'illegals' and how much we spend on them. We had our mentee with us, a young man of Mexican lineage. I asked him afterwards if that made him mad. He said not anymore, he hears it so much.
