I would just encourage my friends on the left who want to raise taxes, raise taxes if you can, but the bottom line is that raising revenues does not make you more responsible, does not make you use the revenues that you currently have more responsibly. So the notion of raising taxes to use that as a fix to this situation is inconsistent with the reality and is part of the alternate universe that we ought not be a part of. Mr. Speaker, I yield 1 minute to the gentleman from Illinois, Mr. Donald Manzullo.
