After wasting time for 11 months, a final year 2000 Budget has been passed. Mr.
E.A. Sr. November

Washington, D.C. 20510 Dear
Rep. Hastert & Sen. Lott,
Re: Year 2000 BUDGET After
wasting time for 11 months, a final year 2000 Budget has been passed. You Republicans are claiming
much of the credit for the 98 & 99 Budget Surpluses when the
credit belongs to President Bill
Clinton and his 1993 Economic Plan.
Republican version 1994 CONTRACT WITH AMERICA called
for a Balance Budget in the year 2002 using $115 Billion of Social
Security Trust Fund money. A
FAR CRY FROM BUDGET SURPLUS. Give
President Clinton credit where credit is due. The
President of the United States submits a yearly Federal Budget to
Congress. The money
needed for
the budget originates in the House subject to a Presidential VETO.
Keep the pork out! The
Reagan Economic Boom of the 1980's was fueled by BORROWED MONEY which
added to our National
Debt. Debt before Reagan
$998 Billion yearly interest $74.9 Billion.
Look what happened after
12 years of Reagan and Bush:

$2,602.3 Trillion
$214.1 Billion 1989
$2,857.4 Trillion
$240.9 Billion 1990
$3.233.3 Trillion
$264.8 Billion 1991
$3,665.3 Trillion
$285.5 Billion 1992
$4,064.6 Trillion
$292.3 Billion The
National Debt stands at approximately $5.6 Trillion and has increased
about $1,535.4 Trillion in
the 7 years of President Clinton but if you take away the extra
REPUBLICAN INTEREST on the National
Debt, PRESIDENT CLINTON HAS TO BE THE MOST CAPABLE ADMINISTRATOR SINCE
PRESIDENT FRANKLIN D. ROOSEVELT.
So don’t take credit for something that you Republicans
had nothing do with. You
increased CORPORATE WELFARE! The
booming economies in all 50 states are the result of the Clinton 1993
Economic Plan. If we were to
phase out CORPORATE WELFARE in say 3 years, 50% 2000, @25% 2001 and
25%2002 this country
could probably be on it’s way to being out of Debt and the average
man and woman could partake
in the quality of life that this country is capable of producing. In my opinion, at the present time we are ruled by Special
Interest Groups & this goes for all branches of government from
Local, State
and Federal. Campaign
Finance Reform has been tabled, where is Bush, Jr. getting all of his Campaign
Money from? There is
always a payback time.
So
when it comes to taking CREDIT FOR A JOB WELL DONE, my hat goes off to
President Bill
Page
2 Hastert-Lott from Mr. E.A. Sr. Clinton
and the Democrats, they care about the welfare of the average man and
woman in this country. Lately
you Republicans are touting your concern for Social Security and
Medicare, this is contrary to normal
Republican concerns. Rep Nick Smith, R-Michigan wanted this country to
default on the debt payments
(first time in the history of this country) during the two Republican
federal government shut downs in 1995 and Smith is concerned about
Social Security. Remind him
that there is an old saying
“YOU GO TO HELL FOR LYING!” So!
Quit saying that you are interested in saving Social Security and
Medicare, you are interest in the 40,000,000
plus votes in the year 2000 elections. You
Republicans are allowing one big time merger after another, inflation is
at a 30 year low but the Federal
Reserve has raised interest rates 1/4 of 1%
3 times lately resulting in a $7.50 per $1000 per month
increase in interest payments on variable rate home mortgages and
installment loans. The only inflation was in the Bank profits.
Rein in the Federal Reserve! The little guy got hit again! I
REALLY DON’T KNOW HOW MOST OF YOU REPUBLICANS SLEEP AT NIGHT. YOU’VE
GOT TO HAVE NIGHT-MARES! Incidentally,
with each of Clinton’s 7 yearly Federal Budgets the yearly deficits
have gone down
contrary
to the 12 years of Reagan and Bush, where each of the 12 Reagan-Bush
yearly Federal
Budget deficits had gone up resulting in a $.32 Trillion addition
to out National Debt. I don’t hear you Republicans claiming credit for
that. Some will say he had
a Democrat Congress but Reagan and Bush
ruled with READ MY LIPS, NO NEW TAXES!
They borrowed the money. They
spent over $2.5
Trillion on a military buildup. I’ve
read that we had a 50 year supply of military tires.
They would
probably turn to stone by the time they were used.
The Military-Industrial complex was running 7 days week with NO
WAR! $4 Billion aircraft carriers etc.
That was what the Reagan boom
was about! They almost
broke the country. This
points to the REPUBLICANS BEING THE BIG
SPENDERS! FIGURES DON’T
LIE BUT LIARS FIGURE! cc: President Clinton, Vice President Gore Mr. E.A. Sr. Reps. Gephardt, Upton, Bonior Law
