I have two other sources that confirm the same thing. Here is the Washington Post, that great conservative newspaper which has endorsed every Democrat who has run for office for the President since the paper's existence, but it says here, Medicare is nearer to the red, that the Clinton trustee, who last April 3 predicted it was going to go bankrupt in 2 years, miscalculated. And then this other chart shows what the actual trust funds are for the fiscal year 1996, right now losing over $4 billion, $4.2 billion, year to date. This chart is actually as of April 23, 1996, this comes from the New York Times, which, again, is not any kind of a conservative propaganda sheet by anybody's stretch. But this is fact. And what is so amazing is we still have the Democrat party and leadership in absolute denial.
