Giuliani said, “I challenged her. She has backed off that. She has a new one today. This one is, she's going to give out $1,000 to everybody to set up a 401(k).The problem is, this one costs $5 billion more than the last one.”

I know how to get a health care plan not just talked about, but actually implemented. I know how to make sure that we keep our taxes down and our spending down.
