                   BIG GOVERNMENT IS NOT THE SOLUTION

  (Mr. WILSON of South Carolina asked and was given permission to 
address the House for 1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. WILSON of South Carolina. Madam Speaker, American families are 
concerned that the failed solutions they see coming out of Washington 
all have the same themes: more government, more taxes, more borrowing, 
and more spending.
  At a time when our government is heavily in debt and when our economy 
is losing jobs, more spending and more taxes are not strategies that 
will produce jobs or that will protect the value of our currency.
  With health insurance reform, we need solutions that are built on 
strengthening individual choice and on protecting the doctor-patient 
relationship. We need to expand competition in the health insurance 
market by letting individuals shop for plans across State lines. Rather 
than a plan that empowers the government, we can empower individuals 
and small businesses to band together to secure affordable health care.
  In conclusion, God bless our troops, and we will never forget 
September the 11th in the global war on terrorism.
