“I represent Oak Ridge, Tennessee, the home of the Y-12 weapons plant, and we have had some division about moving monies around. We are adequately funding our preparedness in this country. I understand the comments of the gentleman from Wisconsin (Mr. Obey). I understand his comments about us not spending enough money. But if you are looking at the nuclear weapons in the world and the stockpiles that we must maintain in order to have this deterrent, you could not hardly spend enough money to guarantee globally at all times total safety, unequivocally, no matter what, whenever, however. You could not possibly spend enough money. So it is kind of an arbitrary thing.…”
