On the recordApril 23, 1998
The good news is, if we get to a point where this does keep going, we keep spending under control and revenue just keeps growing like it has been for the last 3 or 4 or 5 years and it just keeps doing what it has been doing, these $250 billion surpluses are not far off. That means we can both put the money aside for Social Security and start paying down the Federal debt so our children might inherit a debt-free Nation and lower the tax burden on the American people. We can do all three of those things if we just manage to stay under control with spending in this city. We talked about some incredible things here and we talked about how sometimes common sense in Washington and Wisconsin and Minnesota are very, very different. I would like to bring up one more topic, and then I would like to take the last few minutes to kind of close with a vision where we are going on the future. The topic I would like to bring up is the needle exchange.
