No. One can keep putting $2,000 per year into this account each year from now through the year they retire, unless, unless we go back to the ways of 1993; and if we go back to the ways of 1993, broken promises and higher taxes, certainly this might be one of the accounts they look at; but it is up to the American people to make sure they keep elected Representatives who are going to be more interested in controlling Washington spending, because when we control Washington spending, that means the people can keep more of their own money instead of sending it to Washington. The folks have to make sure that they understand that is what is necessary in order for this Tax Code to continue with tax cuts as opposed going back to the way of 1993, but that is up to the American people.

It passed without a single, solitary Republican vote. I am sure the gentleman from Michigan remembers what I am talking about here. It is the biggest tax increase in American history.
