I share my colleague's concerns over the debt. In fact, I started to really become alarmed with it under the Obama administration when we went from being $10.6 trillion in debt to nearly $20 trillion in debt. I just wonder, where were you when this was going on? And why was there not any alarm sounding then? But again, it is just politics masquerading as fiscal discipline. Mr. Speaker, I yield 3 minutes to the gentleman from Kansas (Mr. Estes), a good friend of mine.
