Called the Payroll Tax Cut a Trillion Dollar Bailout In a December 2011 interview with local blogger and radio show host, Peter Heck, Walorski said: [4:38:] Instead of being truthful and transparent with this country and standing up and saying, you know, lets look at this stuff as adults and lets come up, once and for all, with a budget in this country and start with that so its fair and then look at, you what, what can we possibly do. But this is symptomatic. This stuff is happening all of the time with these issues that they pull out of their back pocket and they throw up there for political votes and no way to pay for it. And todays trillion dollar bailout, you know, basically, another trillion dollar extension you know, I think, Peter, weve gotten to the point here where as Americans and elected officials together, were fooling ourselves. Every time these little political moves are made, were fooling ourselves. Theyre hailing victory today in Washington and the American people have no certainty. Small business in this country has less certainty as to how to plan, what to do and what to think about where were at in this nation. Its just so symptomatic of how this country is limping along[5:34] [Peter Heck Interview with Jackie Walorski, 12/16/11] Note: Audio is saved on the drive.
