We do not have an unlimited checking account. We have to be concerned about these things. So my complaint about the center from Vermont's bill and quite honestly the bipartisan effort.

Let's not just shotgun it out to the economy again wasting tens if not hundreds of billions of dollars. (15:04–15:09)
