On the recordMarch 18, 1997
The system that I think we are looking forward to is developing and bringing back in balance a role for Government, highlighting the role that individuals can play, highlighting the role that private enterprise can play and highlighting the role, the responsibility of nonprofit faith-based types of organizations that American society where there is an equal balance between those four is when we really excel, and that when one of those becomes too dominant is when maybe we encounter most of our problems. And I think what we have seen over the last number of years is where the role of the Federal Government has gotten so big and where we are spending $1.6 trillion per year and we are $5, approaching $6 trillion in debt, and we are saddling our kids with interest payments of $258 billion per year. We are out of whack. You know when a two-wage earner family is a requirement and not an option, we are out of whack and we have got to bring that back into focus.
