Mr. President, I thank the Senator for his leadership on the Budget Committee. I see we have also been joined by one of our new Members, a freshman Member, who comes from the business side of things. He ran a manufacturing company, so he has an interesting perspective on Federal budgeting. I love to ask folks who are in business: Could you see doing business where you were borrowing 35 cents of every $1 you spent? The answer is: I wouldn't stay in business very long. With that, I would like to hear from Senator Johnson of Wisconsin.
