“One other point that the gentleman made that I think bears further discussion is the gentleman's reference to paygo. Of course, we throw ``paygo'' around here all the time. Sometimes, people's eyes kind of blank out when we talk about paygo. Can the gentleman talk a little bit more about the simplistic and basic approach of paygo? What does it mean? What is its effect on the work that we do? Madam Speaker, I yield to the gentleman from Utah. Mr. McADAMS. The rules of the House require that any legislation that would have a fiscal impact has to be paid for. We can't simply add that on to the tab and put it on the taxpayers' credit card. Every legislation has to be paid for upfront.”
