the President's health care plan would result in massive new bureaucracy and regulation of the economy. Do not just take my word for it. I invite my colleagues to read a report titled, ``The Regulatory Requirements of the Health Security Act,'' prepared by Multinational Business Services, Inc. Among the findings of this report are the following: The Clinton plan will require 98,146 new Federal, State, and health care alliance bureaucrats. The Clinton plan will require 59 new offices to support these bureaucrats. The Clinton plan contains 818 new regulatory mandates on the Federal and State governments. The Code of Federal Regulations would grow by about 2,891 pages. Staffing expenditures alone would cost Federal, States, and health alliances more than $3.9 billion each year. If the American people think the Government is too bloated and regulates too much now, we ought to be highly alarmed by the Clinton health care plan.
