Mr. President, I also thought it interesting that, regarding the issues we are debating that so deeply divide us, a Wall Street Journal op-ed today appeared, which is one of those rare times when the author puts into a much larger perspective, a more cosmic perspective, what we are talking about and puts it in moral terms--long-term moral terms--rather than just Democrats versus Republicans and the fight of the day. Mr. President, I ask unanimous consent that this article be printed in the Record after my remarks. It is written by Arthur C. Brooks and is called ``The Debt Ceiling and the Pursuit of Happiness.'' The ACTING PRESIDENT pro tempore. Without objection, it is so ordered. (See exhibit 1.)
