                         TAX CODE IS UNAMERICAN

  (Mr. TRAFICANT asked and was given permission to address the House 
for 1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. TRAFICANT. Mr. Speaker, the Tax Code is unAmerican. It is also so 
big it would give King Kong a hernia.
  But the bad stuff is evident. The Tax Code rewards dependency, 
subsidizes illegitimacy, kills jobs, and chases companies overseas.
  Now, if that is not enough to overload your hard drives, check this 
out: Experts say that the Tax Code is needed because it modifies 
economic behavior.
  Beam me up.
  If the Founders wanted to modify economic behavior, they would have 
contracted with Sigmund Freud to write the Tax Code.
  I yield back the ego, the id, and the super ego of our kinky Tax 
Code.
