I do not believe it is a national disgrace to allow hard working people to hang onto more of their own money and send less here to Washington. I do not believe it is a national disgrace to allow for the reduction in the overall growth of spending, to make sure we save and preserve programs for Americans. That is what we are doing with this Balanced Budget Act, as we work to preserve Medicare into the next generation, as we preserve veterans' benefits, as we work to make sure that this Government takes less money out of the pockets of working Americans, to allow them to keep more of their money to save, spend and invest as they see fit. The fact that over 70 percent of these tax cuts go to families making under $75,000 is not disgraceful, it is the truth, and it is good for the American people.
