“we are headed toward $20 trillion in spending. The President's program, the Democrat's program, is maybe one-half of 1 percent, which is almost nothing. This is their program, a blank sheet of paper. That is what it is. At least Congressman Ryan, the Budget Committee chairman over in the House, is trying to do something that is worthwhile. By the way, just so everybody knows, the rich are not going to be treated tremendously respectfully in this matter. They are going to lose, on the top level, on entitlement programs. There is a cutback for those who reach a certain level of income. This is not as simple as it sounds, nor is it a desire to take anything away from senior citizens. It is trying to get our country's budget under control and it is out of control. Mr. President, I yield up to 5 minutes to the distinguished Senator from Maine, if I can. The PRESIDING OFFICER. The Senator from Maine.”
