The American people are sick of these kinds of conversations. My friends across the aisle voted to rob $500 billion out of Medicare for ObamaCare. They instituted the IPAB Board that's going to ration care for our seniors. We brought a proposal to this House that was going to root out all loopholes in nooks and crannies where businesses hide their money, and they all voted ``no.'' The American people are looking for real solutions. And you know what? This Harry Reid bill is full of budget gimmicks that don't get the job done. Mr. McGOVERN. I continue to reserve the balance of my time.
