DUELING PHILOSOPHIES
(Mr. HAYWORTH asked and was given permission to address the House for
1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
Mr. HAYWORTH. Mr. Speaker, in last year's budget, the President
estimated that unless things changed, future generations would have to
pay an 82-percent tax rate. So when I got this year's budget, I looked
furiously to see just how much the situation had improved. Funny thing
is, though, the President failed to include that number this time
around. That is because instead of going down, the tax rate future
generations would have to pay because of the President's fiscal folly
has gone up. It has gone up to 84 percent.
The liberal Democrats in this Congress and in the White House have
declared war on the next generation of Americans. Unless we act now to
take control of this bloated and inefficient bureaucracy, our children
can look forward to a future of higher interest rates, higher taxes,
less opportunity, and ultimately a lower standard of living.
Well, we will not let the liberal Democrats make the first generation
the first to have a lower standard of living than their parents. We
will fight for the future of America. We will not let future
generations foot the bill for the liberals' irresponsibility and
mismanagement.
