Most American families have a budget. Almost all American businesses have a budget, and virtually every State, county, local government has a budget. And, in fact, in this House, since the current Budget Act was passed in 1974, we have had a budget that has passed in this House every single year, except for this year. Maybe the Democrats who run this place lost it. Let's see. Is it under here? No, that's the Congressional Record. That's not it. Maybe they lost it. No, they didn't lose it, Mr. Speaker. They are not passing a budget because they don't want the American people to see that they have, after almost doubling the national debt already, they're going to triple it again. And, Mr. Speaker, they do not want the American people to see that because they know it will bring a financial calamity upon this country like one we have never seen if we don't turn it around.
