Senator Crapo in the House

Senator Crapo is in the House speaking to us about the danger of uncontrolled spending. He did not support the Obama stimulus package. "We cannot spend ourselves to prosperity."

This year's federal deficit is going to be $1.6 billion up from $200 billion under Bush.

He states that the federal government is taking control of companies and growing phenomenally. Freddy Mac, AIG, the Health Care Bill, etc.

Good news is that the reaction of the American public is wide and broad causing Congress to reconsider its ways. He sees hope in developing energy. Coal might even be making a come back.
