“it is interesting that the sponsor of this bill would mention that all politics is local. I would remind the gentleman that in my State of Mississippi local elected officials are held personally liable for debts they incur while in office. If they spend more money than they can collect in taxes, they are personally liable. I wonder if the sponsor of this bill would be willing to pay his share of the $1,553,114,795,203.56 that his policies have added to the American debt in just the past 3 years? I wonder how many of the Members who feel so strongly about this bill would be willing to pay their share of the $34 billion it is going to add to our Nation's debt. Do Members really feel that strongly about it? Do Members really think they are doing enough good to stick my kids with their $34 billion bill? We are at war, and shame on us if we are the first generation of Americans to cut taxes as young Americans are dying on a daily basis. We are at war and we ought to be willing to pay for it and we ought to quit sticking our kids with our bills.”
