Philanthropy is lost. The human spirit is suppressed. Most people want a legacy they want to give something back, a library, a hospital wing, a donation to their church. This is a form of socialism that must go.

The ultimate check against government tyranny is an informed electorate who will elect people who believe in limited government.

When it comes to immigration reform, now is the time ... I've never seen a better political environment ... I'm not doing immigration reform to solve the Republican Party's political problem. I'm trying to save our nation from, I think, a shortage of labor and a catastrophic broken system.
