“Big banks churn out page after page of incomprehensible fine print to obscure the cost and risks of checking accounts, credit cards, mortgages and other financial products. The result is that consumers can't make direct product comparisons, markets aren't competitive, and costs are higher. If the playing field is leveled and the broken market fixed, a lot more money will stay in the pockets of millions of hard-working families. That's real stimulus - money to families, without increasing our national debt.”

Except for the horror movie.”

“When I said that something was going to cost a certain amount of money, I actually knew what I was talking about.

That is where the convincing part between me and Stuart came, we had to convince people with money that we could do it for that budget.”

It requires better textbooks, it requires a vision, it requires a determination, but it's not very expensive to do that anyway.”
