                            STOP THE MADNESS

  (Mr. WAMP asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 
minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. WAMP. Madam Speaker, yesterday the gentlewoman from Colorado 
[Mrs. Schroeder] came to the House floor and declared how mad she was 
that this could happen, that the President and Congress could not get 
together and that Federal employees may be furloughed.
  Let me tell you what makes me mad. It even makes me sick, that in my 
lifetime, since 1969, this Government has run up 5 trillion dollars' 
worth of debt and our children are going to have to pay it. And almost 
everything they earn is going to go to the Government in the future.
  Stop the madness, Mr. President. Balance the budget. That is all we 
have to do is come together this week for our children and their 
future.
