The ownership of computers in the home is far less than the statistics show, because usually when the computer breaks down once, that is the end of it for a long, long time. They do not have the money or incentive to get the computer repaired.
Major Owens, American Politician (1936-  )
What scared me in that debate is that it's not about the ownership rules at all. The vast majority of people don't even know what the rules say, to be perfectly candid. Name all six of them.

Home ownership is the cornerstone of a strong community.
Rick Renzi, American Politician (1958-  )

John Sebastian, American Musician (1944-  )
I sold some shares, but on a net basis, significantly increased my ownership.
