UPTURN IN THE ECONOMY
(Mr. GOODLING asked and was given permission to address the House for
1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
Mr. GOODLING. Mr. Speaker, I do not usually take 1 minutes, but
sitting here listening to the 1 minutes I became very, very amused
because some very intelligent people would have us believe that somehow
or other last year's budget process had something to do with the upturn
of the economy. Now, those very intelligent people certainly remember
that the upturn of the economy began in the third quarter of 1992, I
repeat, the third quarter of 1992. That is before we got to the budget
process.
I would also remind them that we will not know what effect April 15
will have on the economy until about December of this year. I hope that
it will not have an ill-effect, but we will not know that for another
several months.
