“For the record, what this House will do today, in bipartisan fashion, is to strike a blow for tax fairness and remove the ultimate theft of money from the people who most need it. The gentleman from California (Mr. Stark) a few moments ago talked about how this would only help the wealthy few. Well, I guess there are different definitions for words in this grand land of ours, and people are free to use Orwellian definitions, when, in fact, what we want to do is make sure that the seniors who are single and earning $34,000 a year and married couples who are earning $44,000 a year have their Social Security taxes reduced. These are the wealthy few? Mr. Speaker, how sad, the shameful catechism of the left, always embracing emotion and interesting definitions that fly in the face of fact.”
