                         80,000 NEW IRS AGENTS

  (Mr. GROTHMAN asked and was given permission to address the House for 
1 minute.)
  Mr. GROTHMAN. Mr. Speaker, over the weekend I attended a University 
of Wisconsin football game, and for awhile I sat high in the second 
deck overlooking the campus and the beautiful Lake Mendota.
  As I stood there looking at over 80,000 people, I wondered what was 
going on in different people's minds. Some people were looking at 
beautiful Lake Mendota. Some people were looking at the beautiful 
college buildings: Vilas Hall and Van Vleck Hall. Other people were 
looking down on the football game.
  As I looked at the 80,000 people, I realized that some people looking 
at 80,000 people said: Wouldn't it be great if we hired all 80,000 
people to be new IRS agents?
  Please, don't let this country become East Germany. Vote ``no.''
  Mr. Speaker, I hope we all vote ``no'' on the reconciliation bill.
