On the recordMay 14, 1996
I get the last word because I control the time, and I will just conclude this section of our special order, before we turn our attention to the budget, by quoting from the nonpartisan American Academy of Actuaries form December 21 of last year. They said--now, bear in mind these are nonpartisan actuaries, people who do this kind of financial forecasting for a living--they said that the President's budget does not protect Medicare from bankruptcy, and went on to say: It is similar to the quick fixes enacted in the past that have allowed the Medicare program to fall into its current financial state. This proposal also includes accounting tricks.
