On the recordFebruary 14, 2001
I have to say, this debate is somewhat disturbing. We have been discussing taking some of the money people have worked hard to earn and have sent here to Washington--and we have a surplus of money coming here now; we have a tax surplus for which people have worked hard, they have earned it, they have sent it to Washington, and we have enough money to pay for all the bills we have right now--and now we are talking about how can we take some of this money that people worked hard to earn and return it to them. In the discussion and debate we hear some saying that people who are paying less in taxes are going to get less money back in real dollars than people who pay a lot more in taxes are going to get back and that somehow is unfair.
