EXCERPT:

STOCKMAN: “It's welfarism run rampant. It will never be solved from Washington, because Washington is the swamp filled with lobbies of every kind and they always win. I say put it in a giant block grant, send it back to the states and let Nevada compete against California to see what kind of welfare you have, how big the grants are, do you have to work or not and so forth. It is the only way that we’re going to avoid national bankruptcy, is to bring the states back into a competitive ballgame."
