Ted Stevens

Mr. President, the budget deficit for 1996 is estimated at $144 billion. It is projected to nearly double by the year 2002 under current budgetary policies and will continue to grow each year thereafter. It is growing at an astounding rate, over $335,000 a minute. I am sure people are tired of hearing this, but in my opinion, we have to keep repeating it.

I have a number of children, six of them. I have eight grandchildren. I am very worried about the future as far as they are concerned in terms of what their share of this national debt will be if it continues to grow at this astounding rate.

It was projected that my youngest granddaughter's share of this debt will increase 25 percent in just the next 5 years, and that she will pay something like $187,000 in taxes in order to pay the interest on the national debt during her life.

I have been impressed by what the leader, Senator Dole has been saying. Interest rates are 2 percent or more higher than they would be if the debt and the deficit were under control. It is not a matter of trying to pay down the debt overnight; we cannot. It is over $5 trillion. It is not a matter of trying to eliminate the deficit overnight; we cannot. The debt is mounting too fast.

What we can do is pass House Joint Resolution 1 which would be a symbol to our people and to the world that we are prepared to set a new standard for the Federal Government. The Federal Government of this country will do exactly what every State in the Union must do, balance the budget annually, bring interest rates under control, and try to find a way to start paying down the debt.

That is what this battle is all about. It is not about this generation and the deficit created under it. It is about whether this generation is going to solve the problem created during their lifetime, or are we going to pass it on to our children and grandchildren?

I do not believe you can have any more graphic example than the experience that Senator Dole shared with some of us the other day. He told us about how he visited with this young couple, and because of the 1-percent increase in interest rates, they were not able to buy the house they wanted. It meant $65 more per month. That is getting down where the rubber hits the road.

I think that is the worst part of this situation we are dealing with right now, the disincentive for young people to start their families, to plan ahead and provide homes for them. That is not only the American dream, it is the American lifestyle. We ought to have a way to get back to that lifestyle. We ought to not deny it for future generations.

Ted Stevens

We need to think of our children and our children's children. Given our enormous debt, will their taxes be out of sight? They will be. Will they be paying into Social Security retirement funds that will not be there when they retire? They will be. Will the interest on the debt squeeze out the type of services that ought to be provided by the Federal Government? The answer is yes.

Interest in the national debt is growing now to the point where it will be 20 percent or more of Federal spending by the year 2002.

I support this constitutional amendment. In the past I have questioned whether there was a basic commitment to the discipline that is necessary in Congress to carry it out without cutting necessary discretionary spending. I believe there is a commitment in this Congress and we ought to send this constitutional amendment to the States.

Mr. President, today we are once again engaging in an ancient debate about whether or not there ought to be binding constraints on the ability of the Government to incur debt. I say this is an ancient debate because it actually started at the very beginning of the constitutional process.

Phil Gramm

When Thomas Jefferson first saw the Constitution, he was serving as Minister to France and, therefore, was not in the country when it was written. When he first saw the Constitution, he made, in a letter, the following statement: "I wish it were possible to obtain a single amendment to our Constitution. I would be willing to depend on that alone for the reduction of the administration of our Government to the genuine principles of its Constitution. I mean an additional article taking from the Government the power of borrowing." Now, I submit, Mr. President, that today we are engaged in the same debate that was initiated the very first moment Jefferson saw the new Constitution. It was recognized at that point, by no less a keen observer than Thomas Jefferson himself, that there was a problem in the Constitution. Fortunately, at that time, we were on a gold standard and the amount of money in the economy was limited by a requirement that it be converted into gold at the rate of $20.67 an ounce, and except during wartime, when this requirement was suspended, we had a relatively stable situation. Every time this requirement was suspended, however, we had an explosion in prices, and when we went off the gold standard in the 1930's, this constraint on the amount of money in the economy was totally removed.

We now find ourselves in the situation where we have not balanced the Federal budget since 1969. Every year since 1969, we have run a deficit. The cumulative debt of the Federal Government, which converts into a debt for each individual citizen, has risen from $1 trillion to $2 trillion to $3 trillion.

I know throughout this debate we have had charges hurled back and forth between the Democratic side of the aisle and the Republican side of the aisle as to who is responsible for this situation. I, for one, do not have any trouble saying that the blame can be found on both sides of the aisle, both in the Congress and in the White House. The plain truth is, our Democratic colleagues who want more Government have consistently underestimated the cost of the Government that they want, and in doing so they have planted the seeds for more and more Government spending without being willing to look the American people in the eye and say, "We are going to have to raise taxes to pay for this additional Government." Might I also say that, on our side of the aisle, we are very generous in promising less Government and more freedom -- we love to talk about cutting taxes. But when it gets down to the bottom line of cutting Government spending, we have never ever been willing to cast the votes needed to place ourselves in a position where we are living up to the high commitments we have made.

Some of our colleagues have said, "Well, why do we need a binding constraint on Government?" They are forgetting, however, what is the purpose of the Constitution. If the Founders had trusted Congress to respect freedom of religion, freedom of assembly, and freedom of the press, and if the Founding Fathers had trusted Congress to protect private property, there would never have been a Constitution. The whole purpose of the Constitution is to limit the power of Government. In fact, the genius of the Constitution is that it actually says there are certain things that Government just cannot do.

Does anybody believe that this Congress, this President -- that any Congress, or any President -- can be trusted to balance the Federal budget, to limit the growth of Government spending, or at least have the courage to pay for it by raising taxes? I do not believe this Congress can be trusted, and I can not envision any Congress which could be elected that, year in and year out, could be trusted to act in this manner.

Let me explain why: Every time we vote on a spending bill, all the groups who want the money are looking over the Congressman's left shoulder, sending letters back home, telling people whether their Representative cares about the old, the poor, the sick, the tired, the bicycle rider -- the list goes on and on and on. But nobody is looking over the Congressman's right shoulder to see if he cares about the future of the country or the future of our children.

What happens, as we vote on these individual bills, is that the average beneficiary may get $1,000, or $1,500 while the average taxpayer may spend only 50 or 75 cents. You do not have to have a Ph.D. in economics to know that one person will do much more to get $1,000 or $1,500 than a lot of people will do to prevent spending 50 cents. So what happens on vote after vote after vote, is that we end up spending more and more money.

Well, as a result, what has happened to taxes? When I was a boy, 8 years old in 1950, the average family in America with two little children sent $1 out of $50 it earned to Washington in taxes. Today, the average family with two children is sending $1 out of every $4 it earns to Washington in taxes. If we do not create a single new Federal program in the next 30 years, if we simply pay for the Government we have already committed to, in 20 years the average family will be sending $1 out of every $3 to Washington, and in 30 years the average family will be sending $1 out of every $2 to Washington, DC.

This is the cold reality we face. In my opinion, there is only one thing we can do, short of a crisis, to change this picture, and that is to adopt a balanced budget amendment to the Constitution. A constitutional prohibition against deficit spending, which allows for a period of time to come into compliance, will end all of this foolishness. The President will be forced to sit down and work with Congress and the Congress will be forced to work with the President, because under this constitutional constraint we will have no other choice. If we want the games to end, if we want the Government to be forced to live on a budget, if we want to stop the explosion of the tax burden, if we want to have any real chance of preserving Medicare and Social Security for our parents and for ourselves, and if we really care about the future of our country, the most important single change we could make in America Government is to adopt a balanced budget amendment to the Constitution.

Phil Gramm

Jefferson and Adams, after having both served as President and after having had one of the most bitter political debates in America history, started a correspondence, much of which is now known as the "Jefferson-Adams Debate." Adams, ever the pessimist, argued that Americans would discover that they could use Government to redistribute wealth, and that in doing so they would tax productive effort, reward indolence, and that ultimately democracy would fail. Jefferson, ever the optimist, agreed that Americans would make the discovery that they could use Government to redistribute wealth, and agreed that all the tendencies that Adams identified would clearly be present, but Jefferson argued that Americans would realize that what Government could take away from someone else to give them today it could also take away from them and give to someone else tomorrow. Jefferson believed that opportunity would always be so prevalent in America that Americans would ultimately reject Government's redistribution of wealth.

I believe that Jefferson was right. I believe that if America understood what we are choosing every day by choosing more and more government and choosing less and less freedom, I believe that if we could just let Americans look at the end of the path we are following and then decide which fork in the road to take, there would not be any doubt as to which path they would choose -- they would choose Jefferson's.

The problem is that the whole spending process distorts the view and prevents us from seeing clearly the end of the path we are now following. Even in the Republican budget which we tout this year, we will spend $17 billion more on discretionary spending than we promised to spend last year, and we are the party of fiscal responsibility. The Democrats would start dozens of new programs, that would bankrupt the country, without ever telling anybody that they would require a massive increase in taxes.

There is only one way we can bring this to an end, and that is to pass a balanced budget constitutional amendment, send it to the States, let the States ratify it, and then have it imposed on Congress. "Congress shall make no law which raises the deficit." This is the constraint we need.

There are those who have argued, "Well, you are endangering Social Security by forcing the Government to live on a budget." Does anybody really believe that we protect Social Security by going deeper and deeper in debt every single day? Does anybody believe that the explosion of Government programs can ultimately do anything except destroy Social Security? Does anybody believe this continued spending spree under Democratic and Republican administrations, under Democratic and Republican Congresses, can do anything other than undermine the creative genius of our country?

Do the Democrats want more Government enough to raise taxes to pay for it? Do Republicans want more freedom enough to cut spending to make it possible? Both parties are living a lie today. We could end that by passing a balanced budget amendment to the Constitution.

I hope today will be the beginning of a change. I hope people see this as a golden opportunity to change America. I doubt they will, though I am confident that some day we are going to pass this amendment. The sooner we can pass it, the better off the country will be and I continue to hope we will do it today.

John Chafee

Mr. President, why are Federal budget deficits bad? One reason is that for every year that we run a deficit we have to borrow to pay for the shortfall. In the beginning of our country until today, we have borrowed -- this Nation of ours currently is in debt nearly $5 trillion -- $5 trillion with the overwhelming majority of that having occurred in the past 15 years. The cost of servicing that debt -- in other words, paying the interest on that debt -- is currently $240 billion a year. That is not paying the principal. That is solely paying the interest on the debt.

Interest now is the third largest payment that the U.S. Government makes every year. We pay Social Security. We pay defense. And then the next largest item is interest on the debt -- $240 billion a year.

Suppose we did not have to pay that interest on the debt? Suppose that $240 billion was available instead to improve our education system, or to do something about better maintenance for our highways, or to clean up our environment in a better fashion than we are currently doing, or to bolster our efforts to combat crime. A whole list of very, very attractive items would be available -- potential expenditures to improve our Nation if we were not paying $240 billion a year interest on the debt.

The deficit places a tremendous strain on the national economy through higher interest rates. The interest rates would be far lower. And this is not just me saying this. This is testimony we have had before the Finance Committee by the Chairman of the Federal Reserve, Mr. Alan Greenspan. Investors in the United States and borrowers in the United States are required to pay higher interest because of the tremendous national debt that we have and the high interest rates that are having to be paid to service that debt.

If the interest rates were low, what would happen? People would pay less on their mortgages every year, less on their borrowing for a new automobile, and less on the borrowings they have made for their children's education.

John Chafee

The Federal deficit also places a drag on future economic growth. Our potential to expand the economy is directly linked to the amount we invest in physical and in human capital -- newer and better machinery, a better trained work force with improved skills, and, thus, higher productivity and a higher standard of living if we had a pool of national savings available for that investment. Regrettably that is not true. National savings in our country has declined dramatically over the last decade -- the last 10 years -- in part because the Federal Government has engaged in a policy of not saving through its deficit spending. This is, in part, because now what can we do about all this? How will a constitutional amendment to balance the budget help us? What it will do principally is to impose fiscal discipline upon this Nation of ours.

The Federal Government has failed to balance its budget for 26 straight years. With a balanced budget amendment in effect, this Nation of ours -- and us as elected Senators, and likewise in the House of Representatives -- will be required to balance the budget, would be required to face up to the tough decisions, and if we want to spend money, we have to raise the money to pay for it. We cannot borrow.

So this balanced budget amendment represents a first and most important step on a long and difficult journey to fiscal responsibility and to passing this Nation on in better condition to our children than we received it.

Mr. President, every previous effort to balance the budget without an amendment to the Constitution -- I previously was not in favor of an amendment. Instead, I thought we could do it through Gramm-Rudman- Hollings, or through firewalls, or through caps on discretionary spending, or pay-as-you-go rules. All of these we have tried. None of them has succeeded to date. When the targets became too difficult to meet, we simply changed the law. That is the way we did it in the past. But we will not be able to do it once this amendment is in effect.

Mr. President, let me, first of all, say that I think this proposal on the floor of the Senate suffers from the same structural problems that have been with it from the very beginning. It is good politics. It is easy for everybody to vote for it, even if they are not serious about balancing the budget. It is painless. But I do think there are a couple of problems that are very important problems to the people in my State of Minnesota.

First of all, there are a number of us who would be interested in this formulation about balancing the budget if, in fact, we had an amendment that said there could be no raid on the Social Security trust fund. That ought not to be a part of the equation of balancing the budget. But we cannot get support for that amendment.

So, No. 1, I think the talk about a constitutional amendment to balance the budget without the ironclad guarantee, not just to senior citizens, but to their children and their grandchildren, that we will not raid the Social Security trust fund, is a proposal that is deeply flawed.

Why are my colleagues so reluctant to support an amendment on the proposition that in balancing the budget between now and 2002, we will not raid the Social Security trust fund? In the absence of that kind of guarantee, I am not going to vote for any amendment, constitutional or otherwise, to balance the budget, unless there is the absolute assurance given to senior citizens and their families.

I am so tired of this politics that tries to divide the old from the young, senior citizens from their children and grandchildren. Unless we have that guarantee, this proposal is deeply flawed. There are a number of us who want to vote for that alternative, but we do not get the support for it. People in Minnesota and around the country are not interested in an effort to balance the budget on the backs of senior citizens. They are not interested in an amendment that says we will balance the budget, with no guarantee that we are not going to raid the Social Security trust fund to do it. That is flaw No. 1.

Flaw No. 2. People in cafes in Minnesota -- I think the cafes are the best place to be; I think this is the best focus group. You sit down and you talk with people. They say, look, we balance our budget at home -- and we do. But when we balance our budget at home, here is how we do it. We make a distinction between investment for the future and our daily or monthly or yearly operating expenses. We do not cash flow a car that we buy. We do not cash flow the home that we buy. It is on the basis of a fairly long-term mortgage, and we do not cash flow our children's education, higher education. We make an investment. It is a very good family practice and a very good business practice, a sound business practice, to make such an investment if you know that it will pay for itself over and over and over again.

We had an amendment last time that said, look, let us talk about a constitutional amendment to balance the budget, but let us make some distinction between the investment budget, investment we make now -- education, physical infrastructure, or whatnot -- which pays for itself over and over again versus our daily operating budgets. That amendment was voted down. Every family in Minnesota and in America knows the distinction between spending money on a vacation during the summer, when maybe you should not do it, versus spending money on your child's higher education. We had an amendment that wanted to make that distinction. I have talked to one of the coauthors, Senator Simon, about such an amendment. But, no, that amendment also is not part of this.

So if you are talking about a constitutional amendment to balance the budget and (a) you have to guarantee that this does not lead to a raiding of the Social Security trust fund, and (b) you have no distinction made between an investment budget and an operating budget, you have a deeply flawed proposal.

The third point. We can balance the budget -- and should. I voted for the President's proposal to balance the budget by the year 2002 -- CBO scored. I do not think people really know what all this CBO scored means, but I will say it. Actually, I thought that proposal was by no means perfect and that we could do much better.

Mr. President, you have a proposal that is flawed on several counts. Then we get to the sort of -- as my children would have said it when they were younger -- "get real" phase of this. We do not need this to balance the budget. We can do it. The question is, how?

I will tell you one of the things that I find just more than a little bit ironic. At the very time that some of my colleagues, whom I deeply respect, are talking about a constitutional amendment to balance the budget, they trot out a son-of-star-wars proposal. The Pentagon does not want it, the Joint Chiefs of Staff do not want it, and it is $70 billion more on top of what we are already spending on star wars. We do not know whether it will work. It is not proven. Research has not been done. The Pentagon and the military tell us we need to, first of all, do research to see whether or not this would work and to defend our country in what ways. But the very people who are talking about a constitutional amendment to balance the budget, no guarantee we will not raid the Social Security trust fund, who will not pass our amendment that makes it clear that you cannot do that, are the very people that trot out the son of star wars, with $70 billion more for a system the Pentagon itself does not want in this form right now.

Mr. President, the very people who are voting for a constitutional amendment to balance the budget have now in the budget proposal voted for $11 billion more than what the Pentagon wants. The first time in my adult life -- no, it is the second time; it happened before. This is the second time around. This is the second time in my adult life where the Congress is appropriating more money than the Pentagon says it wants. These are the same people who want to cut financial aid to higher education, cut educational opportunities for children, cut into Head Start, cut into job training, and they want to go $70 billion more for son of star wars, and they want to spend $11 billion more above and beyond that $70 billion than the Pentagon even wants. And the last time around, in the last budget, it was $7 billion more we were going to spend. My friends who say they want to balance the budget want to spend $7 billion more on the Pentagon than the Pentagon wanted, and I came out here with a modest amendment which said, please, could you not take half of that $7 billion, $3.5 billion, spend $3.5 billion less since the Pentagon said it does not need it and put it into deficit reduction, and the amendment was defeated.

So everybody understand the politics of today. This proposal was defeated before. It will be defeated probably by a wider margin today. The Senator from Nebraska [Mr. Exon] has come out in the Chamber and said this is absolutely outrageous, because I see what my colleagues are doing here; they want to spend more and more and more and then they want to do a constitutional amendment to balance the budget.

Well, to use what I think is an old Yiddish proverb, you cannot dance at two weddings at the same time. And people in the country are just getting a little tired of it. That is what this proposal is all about. You have people in the Senate who say we are for balancing the budget by the year 2002, and do not worry, senior citizens; this will not be done on your backs and we will not raid the Social Security trust fund, although that surplus is sitting out there, we can assure you of that. But then when it comes to actually voting for that, these folks will not do that.

It seems to me that is one reason why we need a balanced budget amendment. If there are Senators that will not do that now, then under the balanced budget amendment we are going to have to. We are going to have to raise taxes and reduce spending or have a supermajority vote to spend more. But if I could just ask one last thing, and I do not mean to interrupt my colleague.

One last thing. And that is that I have heard these arguments before. I heard President Clinton on the news the other day say as he was walking outside the White House, "Let's just balance it." I have heard that for the whole 20 years I have been here: "Let's just balance it." Both sides have said that over the years.

Orrin Hatch

I think both sides have flaws here. I think both sides have spent too much, both sides have taxed too much, both sides have not done what should be done. That is why we need a balanced budget amendment, because then the game is over. The Federal Government is going to have to live within its means or vote with a high consensus to not live within them, but at least that vote will be done on the record, in front of the American people, rather than the phony way things are done today when people just stand up here and say, "Let's just balance it." I have to laugh. That is the biggest joke in our history. We have 60 years of not balancing it very often, and 27 years in a row of not balancing it at all.

Orrin Hatch

I would also use a Yiddish expression, and that is chutzpah. It takes chutzpah to continue to just spend and tax the American people and to sell out the future of our children. And frankly, that is what is going on here. I am willing to blame both sides. I will be happy to say the Republicans are to blame here, too. I will be as bipartisan as I can be, just like Senator Simon has been, but both of us know that if we do not do something about it, it is only a matter of time until we are going to have to monetize the debt and we will pay it off with devalued dollars that roll off the printing press not really worth anything -- barrels of dollars that will not be worth anything printed up so the Government can escape its debt liability. But at that point, the United States will no longer be the great power it has always been. And that is what it is coming down to, because we cannot continue to go the way we are.

Orrin Hatch

What really bothers me is this argument that we have to preserve and protect Social Security by defeating the balanced budget amendment, which is the only way to preserve and protect Social Security, or at least the current Social Security system. I think if we pass this amendment, we will not only have to preserve and protect it as it is now, we are going to have to find a way of reforming it so that it will last well into the next century and take care of our children and our grandchildren as well, not just those who are living today. The only way we are going to do that is if we really get serious about it and force the Congress to do it. And the only way you are going to do that is by passing a constitutional amendment. I do not think anybody who looks at it sincerely can doubt the wisdom of what I just said.

Orrin Hatch

The fact is that this amendment has been around for a lot of years. It is a consensus amendment. It is the one amendment that has a chance of passing, the first amendment that has ever passed the House of Representatives, the first one and maybe the only one that will ever pass the House of Representatives, and yet we in the Senate are going to stand and block it.

Orrin Hatch

What really hurts me to a great degree is that at least six Senators who have always voted for it are voting against it under the guise that they are protecting Social Security, when in fact the only way you can protect Social Security is to get our spending habits under control, and the only way to do it is to give us the fiscal discipline to do it in the constitution.

I thank the Chair. First of all, I am always more than pleased to hear the analysis of my friend from Utah -- a lot of times we say in the Chamber "whom I deeply respect," and it sounds like flattery, but whom I really do deeply respect. There is just no doubt of his ability as a legislator and his expertise in the Senate, but I am in profound disagreement with that analysis on two points.

First, if in fact we want to make it crystal clear that we are going to balance the budget by the year 2002 and in no way, shape or form is the Social Security trust fund money going to be used for that, then let us have the amendment out on the floor and let us vote for it.

Let me just finish if I can. That is my first point. That is, I think, an important reassurance which we must give.

My second point is that I am absolutely in agreement with my colleague that when you look to the future, especially around the year 2030 and you get to a ratio of two workers and only two workers or working people to every one retired person -- in that sense demography is destiny -- we have our work cut out for us. But I think it is a flawed economic analysis to argue, well, the way we do that is in fact through a constitutional amendment to balance the budget. The way we do that is in a lot of different ways, but one of those ways is to make sure that we have an economy that is producing enough living-wage jobs, that is to say, jobs that people can count on that pay a decent wage with decent fringe benefits so that that working generation, which is the way the Social Security system works, is able to contribute to those who are retired, and then when we are retired, we hope that also there will be a successful enough economy so that base will be there. That is a whole different set of issues that have to do with whether or not we are going to invest in job training, that have to do with whether or not we are going to invest in education, that have to do with whether or not we are going to have an economy that produces high value products with a skilled labor force -- all of which, I would say to my colleague, has much to do with whether or not we make the right investment decisions in the private sector and in the public sector.

My second point is, I must say that when my colleague talks about the past 20 years, I do not have that perspective. Maybe that is the difference. I have not been here that long. I know that in the last 3 years since the President was elected we have halved the deficit. It has gone down. Those facts are irreducible and irrefutable.

I know, if we want to talk about the past, there were people here in the early 1980's, starting around 1981 -- David Stockman has written about this eloquently, as he looks back on those times -- who passed what was euphemistically called the "Economic Recovery Act." George Bush, President Bush, once called it "voodoo economics." We were going to have these massive tax cuts. That was great politics. We could say to people in the country, "We ask you to make a supreme sacrifice. Will you let us cut your taxes so the economy will grow and everybody will be better off?" And people said, "Absolutely." So we did that; disproportionate money going to those who had the most income. And, in addition, we dramatically increased the Pentagon budget, not to mention the explosion of tax expenditures. By the way, I say to my colleague from Utah, I do not see any evidence that my colleagues here are willing to take that on, all those loopholes in deductions, all those subsidies that go to oil companies, tobacco companies, pharmaceutical companies, you name it. We do not take any of that on.

So what did we have, an overall debt that was about $900-and-some billion? Now what is it, $4, $5 trillion, or thereabouts?

I must say, yes, I was not a part of that. I was not a part of the claim for trickle down economics. I never made those claims to people. And I know if we were not paying the interest off on that debt built up during the 1980's we would have a balanced budget right now.

So I am not arguing -- I will finish. I have the floor. But I am not arguing that we not make the tough decisions. I am not arguing that we should not be fiscally responsible. As a matter of fact, I come to the floor with amendments for lots of cuts. What I argue with is some of what I think are distorted priorities. People want to do more and more for the Pentagon. They now have a son of star wars. But for some reason, my colleagues do not seem to believe that a good education is a strong national defense against ignorance, against prejudice, against hopelessness, against despair, against children not doing well, against not having skilled workers.

So this is a debate about a flawed proposal, structurally, and about priorities. That is what this debate is about.

Orrin Hatch

Let me just say, I believe my friend makes a very good case for the balanced budget amendment. Because even though he criticizes some things that others have done, and compliments some things that he has done, the fact is that the system is running the same as usual. One thing that I would just like to point out and I ask the question, is it not true that the six Democrats who always voted for the balanced budget amendment before -- and, perhaps, all Democrats on that side -- who now refuse to support the balanced budget amendment under the guise that they are preserving or protecting Social Security by refusing to support a balanced budget amendment that does not exclude Social Security from the balanced budget calculation, that all six of those Democrats, and I believe every Democrat who will use the Social Security argument as an excuse for voting against the balanced budget amendment, I would ask my friend, did not every one of them vote for President Clinton's fiscal year 1997 budget which did not exclude Social Security receipts from deficit calculations? And, even though my colleague claims the deficit is going down, the debt since we first debated and voted down the balanced budget amendment has gone up $320 billion in 15 months. While we fiddle around here the Nation is burning. We fiddle around on trivialities when, in fact, passing the balanced budget amendment is the only way we are going to get things under control.

I say to my colleague there is one fundamentally important distinction. The Democrats did not enshrine in the Constitution the potential raiding of the Social Security trust fund. It is that simple. I do not think senior citizens or their children or their grandchildren want us to do that, nor should we do so.

I also would say to my colleague, my critique was not restricted to just that one point alone. I argued that this proposal, I think, is flawed in two or three fundamental ways, and then went on to discuss priorities. So that is the distinction.

I reiterate what I said earlier. This proposal is deeply flawed, I think on policy grounds, structural grounds. There should be an ironclad guarantee that we do not enshrine in the Constitution, raiding the Social Security trust fund. We should make a distinction -- I have said this over and over again, I say to my colleague from Utah -- between investment and operating budgets. And we ought to be very careful in not tying our hands so that we do not have, through specifically fiscal policy, the ability in times of economic downturn to do what we need to do to make sure that recessions do not turn into depressions.

Those are some of the structural arguments. My other arguments have to do with priorities. One more time I will point out to people in the country the politics of this vote. It is transparent. We had the vote before. It is not going to pass. Senator Exon has come to the floor, who has voted for it before, and he said this is just outrageous. The very people who are proposing this now bring out son of star wars for another $70 billion. These are the very people who want to spend $7 billion more than the Pentagon even wants. Now they are talking about what kind of tax cuts they can give. And this just does not add up. It does not add up at all.

So it is wrong on basic policy grounds. It is wrong from the point of view of playing politics. And, finally, I have to say, as somebody who has had amendments out here -- and a good number of these amendments have not been agreed to, but I actually think these amendments are quite connected to where most of the people in the country are -- for the life of me I do not understand why this interest in going forward with this expensive son of star wars system, this star wars system, and at the same time colleagues are so eager to cut into job training programs, educational opportunity programs, Head Start programs, and environmental protection programs and all of the rest. When it comes to going after subsidies for oil companies or tobacco companies or pharmaceutical companies or big insurance companies and a whole lot of others of these tax expenditures, which are giveaways, a big part of the budget, the silence of my colleagues is deafening. They do not want to do it. These are the big players, the heavy hitters. These are the folks who have the clout.

When it comes to going after the Pentagon contractors some of my colleagues who are pushing this proposal the hardest want to spend more money than the Pentagon even wants to spend. And they continue with this idea of tax cuts, adding up to a significant amount of money, disproportionately flowing to those people who need it the least, all in exchange for reductions in the quality of health care for senior citizens, children, you name it.

These are distorted priorities. So we have two sets of issues going on here, and on all counts this proposal should be defeated.

Mr. President, I hope the American people understand all these arguments about what Republicans want to spend money on, what Democrats want to spend money on, who wants to cut taxes, who does not want to cut taxes, have nothing whatsoever to do with a balanced budget. It is an absolute, utter smokescreen. The truth of the matter is, you either want a balanced budget built into the Constitution or you do not. For those Democrats and the one Republican who voted against the balanced budget and never came to the floor, never inserted in the Record any excuse, but rather said, "I am against it as a matter of policy," I laud them. I praise them. They just happen to be against it. They do not think it ought to be done.

But for those Senators, and I gather there are none on our side, who take to the floor and make excuses about why they are against it such as, "We are raiding the trust fund for Social Security," it is a charade, it is an absolute smokescreen.

Senators Daschle and Dorgan and others have produced a constitutional amendment which would require a balanced budget in the year 2002 excluding the Social Security trust fund. They argue that including Social Security in the balanced budget amendment effectively authorizes the raiding of the Social Security trust fund and its surpluses for purposes of balancing the budget.

Mr. President and fellow Senators and those who are listening, I believe this argument and the Daschle-Dorgan proposal, I repeat, is nothing more than a smoke screen. It is intended to divert the public's attention from the real issue, constitutionally required fiscal discipline. You either want it or you do not want it. We happen to think it is long overdue. Second, it provides an excuse for some who supported a balanced budget amendment in the past to vote against it now, now that their votes really matter.

But I believe the American people will see through this smokescreen because it is obvious that this is a charade and it is not about Social Security. Rather, it is plain and simple about defeating the balanced budget amendment. That is what it is all about, defeating the balanced budget constitutional amendment.

It is obvious -- not those Democrats who will vote against it on principle or our one Republican who votes against it on principle -- but it is obvious that others are not serious about their constitutional amendment because it would have one clear result which they adamantly oppose, deeper spending cuts in domestic programs, or, which they allege to be opposed to, tax increases. It will be one or the other under their proposals -- huge, deep spending cuts in domestic programs, which they avow they are not for, or huge increases in taxes, which they run around saying they are not for. One or the other must occur under their balanced budget amendment, which they call pure.

Over the next 6 years, from 1997 until 2002, the cumulative unified budget deficit, that is the total receipts less total outlays -- a simple proposition -- will be $1.1 trillion, according to CBO. Over that same period, Social Security will run a surplus of $520 billion, including $104 billion in the year 2002.

Mr. President, if we adopt the Daschle-Dorgan approach, we would be forced to make much deeper spending reductions than any plan on the table.

If applied proportionately across the budget, that plan will require $92 billion more in Medicare cuts. Of course, they will disavow that. They are not for that. They are for a balanced budget without Social Security, without that trust fund being in the budget. It will require $46 billion more in Medicaid cuts. Of course, they will say that is not the case. They do not want that. It will require $36 billion more in welfare cuts, $62 billion more in mandatory spending, and $38 billion more in the discretionary accounts of the Government. Is that what they really want?

Frankly, some will get up and say, "No. We're going to do it another way." How? There is only one other way, and that is to dramatically increase taxes. I do not mean a little bit -- a huge amount. Is that what they want? Maybe. But they are not saying that.

So I conclude that those who are now hiding behind the veil of Social Security being adversely affected by a unified balanced budget, their real goal is plain and simple and as patent as can be. It is to kill the balanced budget amendment, nothing more, nothing less.

The sponsors of the Daschle-Dorgan proposal argue that our balanced budget amendment would raid Social Security. If that is the case, then the Democrats who proposed it and the President who talks about that are raiding Social Security, too. In fact, every budget plan by the President and the Democrats in the past 18 months, which claims to reach balance in the year 2002, includes Social Security in the deficit estimates. They claim balance; and it is a balance which includes Social Security in every single budget produced.

Most recently -- January 19, 1996; the end of the negotiations -- Senators Daschle and Dorgan held a press conference with others to promote their approach to balancing the budget. Somehow they must have forgotten that their plan reached balance in 2002, in their words, "raiding Social Security." Moreover, the President's 1997 budget, although filled with gimmicks, like every other balanced budget presented this year, gets nowhere near balance in the year 2002 if the Social Security trust fund is excluded. Yet Democrat after Democrat -- not those who vote against it as a matter of principle; but those who want to tell the American people they are for a constitutional balanced budget -- but Democrats of that yoke, one after another, claim that the President's proposal "balances the budget in 2002." Yet 45 Democratic Senators voted for the President's balanced budget plan during the last month of debate on the budget resolution. I will wager that almost every one, knowing that the public wants a balanced budget, took full credit for it and said, "We just voted for a balanced budget." It was a balanced budget of the exact type that this constitutional amendment will require.

I mention this only again to highlight the hypocrisy of such proposals. They say they cannot support a balanced budget that includes Social Security surpluses and yet every budget they produce and call balanced supports exactly that.

This is not about protecting Social Security. Those who claim that it is and put a cover over their vote by claiming that it is are trying to suggest that our balanced budget amendment does not protect Social Security.

Let me be clear. We made a promise to our Nation's seniors that we would balance the budget by 2002 without touching Social Security benefits. We kept that promise. Of course, the same cannot be said of some of the other proposals.

The President, in 1993, in his $260 billion tax increase, the largest in history, raised the portion of Social Security benefits subject to taxes from 50 to 85 percent. This effectively cut benefits for millions of middle-class senior citizens by $25 billion over 5 years.

In 1995, 19 Democrat Senators voted for a substitute balanced budget under reconciliation that cut the Consumer Price Index and thus Social Security COLA's. I will admit there was great bipartisan support for it. But for those who now say they do not want to touch Social Security, they do not want to harm it in a constitutional balanced budget, they voted already to harm it to cut the CPI.

Indeed, my good friend, Senator Moynihan, known as a defender of Social Security, called for a CPI reduction of 1 percent each year to balance the unified budget by the year 2002.

Of course, very recently 46 Senators, 24 Democrats and 22 Republicans, voted for the Chafee-Breaux alternative which included a COLA reduction of five-tenths of 1 percent. This proposal would cut Social Security spending by $40 billion.

So, not only did that proposal count the surpluses toward the balanced budget, it increased those surpluses by cutting benefits. I hope that no Senator that voted for Chafee-Breaux will vote against the balanced budget amendment using the protection of Social Security as an excuse.

Again, I want to repeat, the Republican budget does not touch Social Security at all. I have said all along that the best way to protect Social Security is to balance the budget so that we have a strong, growing economy. In legislation implementing the balanced budget amendment, if it were to pass, we could provide procedural safeguards to preclude cutting Social Security benefits or raising Social Security taxes to balance the unified budget. That is not an issue of the amendment. It is an issue of the will of the Congress as a matter of policy, once it is adopted.

When we amend the Constitution, we must be taking the long view. Although some claim they are worried about raiding the Social Security surpluses, I am concerned about the looming and massive Social Security deficits that are on the horizon. These Social Security deficits threaten to push the unified budget to levels far above those we are experiencing today.

Over the period from 2020 to 2030, the Social Security trust fund will run a cumulative deficit of $4 trillion. In 2030 alone, the annual Social Security deficit will be $1 trillion, or $225 billion in constant dollars, which is 56 percent higher than the projected unified budget deficit for all of government.

Let me repeat that: If you put something in the Constitution, I assume you would hope it would exist until 2020 or 2030. If you adopt the Daschle-Dorgan approach, you will be building into the budget of the United States by the year 2020 an opportunity for us to tell the American people we are in balance, even though the Social Security trust fund can be out of balance by hundreds of billions of dollars.

The truth of the matter is that not only would that kind of budget make a mockery of the constitutional balanced budget requirement, it would also be devastating to the American economy because -- and I want to make this point -- it is the unified budget deficit, regardless of what is said here on the floor, it is the unified budget and its deficit, not the deficit excluding Social Security, which tells us how much Government must borrow from the public each year. That is what we want to know: How much do we have to borrow. The unified budget tells us how much Government must borrow. It is this Government borrowing that has real economic consequences for national savings, for investment, for inflation, for interest rates and for economic growth.

Now, to remove any remaining doubt that those who take the coverup of Social Security as their defense against the balanced budget amendment, so that they would remove any doubt that they are more interested in killing the balanced budget amendment than in protecting Social Security, I want to make it known that we were willing to compromise with them to get an agreement. We suggested the idea of revising the balanced budget amendment to require both a balanced unified budget in 2002 and a balance excluding Social Security in 2006, which I believe anyone looking at the flow of expenditures and what is practical would say that is probably where we ought to be.

We proposed an amendment to this proposal that would make it such, 2002, balance under unified; 4 years later, balance excluding Social Security. There is nothing inconsistent with requiring both. In fact, you get to balance excluding Social Security, you have to first balance the unified budget -- no way around it.

Moreover, I believe we need a permanent requirement regarding unified budget balances to protect against a time when Social Security runs large deficits. Those who reject this offer are really, once again, showing us they are not interested in getting an agreement on the balanced budget. They are, instead, interested in defeating it.

Now, Mr. President, and fellow Senators, what we are talking about is the following. It is the difference between economic prosperity and long-term stagnation. As we look out there among our people, one of the things they are most worried about is stagnation in their economic condition, that wages are not going up as fast as they should, that the dream for their children might be less than theirs, which somehow stirs a strong cord in the hearts and minds of Americans. If we do not build into American policy constitutional fiscal restraint that leads to a balanced budget, the difference is going to be simple. It is going to be whether we have prosperity or whether we have stagnation. No doubt about it.

Debt held by the public will reach 180 percent of our gross domestic product. At the end of 1995, our debt stood at 50 percent. In 1945, at the end of the war, it was 114 percent. The budget deficit will reach 15 percent of gross domestic product. In 1995, it was 2.3 percent. Net interest rate on the cumulative debt will cost 8 percent of the gross domestic product. Net interest rates are only 3 percent now. Social Security, Medicare and Medicaid will cost 18 percent, all alone, of the gross domestic product. These programs cost 9 percent now.

It assumes these massive deficits will do no harm to our economy. That is the rosy scenario. CBO states in its report: "In the end, these deficits will weaken the economy, end long-term upward trends in real GDP per capita that we have enjoyed throughout our history. With Federal debt growing so rapidly, the economy will enter a period of accelerated decline." Mr. President, this is a real debate. This is about one of the most important issues for our future that will come before this body.

I went to some length to produce my argument today because I believe those who claim Social Security is the issue and trust funds of Social Security are the issue are perpetrating a huge smokescreen, at best, and, at worst, a monstrous charade. There is no doubt in my mind the best way to help Social Security now and in the future is to balance the budget as prescribed in this constitutional amendment. Without it, the very seniors they attempt to say they are for are put in very serious jeopardy, as are their children and grandchildren.

Orrin Hatch

Mr. President, let me use the remaining time to say I have never heard a more phony argument in my life than the argument that they, the Democrats, are trying to protect Social Security, and yet every time President Clinton's budget comes up here not protecting Social Security the way they say they want to protect it, they vote for it. I am not willing to say people are hypocritical on this matter, but I am willing to say that it is a lousy argument. It is clearly an argument designed to give those who use it an excuse for them to vote against the balanced budget amendment. I have never heard a more disappointing display than yesterday, as Senator after Senator came on this floor and jumped all over Bob Dole, who has done his best to get a balanced budget amendment through.

Orrin Hatch

I think some of the most sordid politics I have seen in years occurred in some of the arguments yesterday. And the arguments are phony arguments. This is a very, very important opportunity for us to try and get the Congress to be required to do what is right. This is the only chance to get them to do that. I hope people will vote for this amendment -- if not today, count on it, it will be back next year.

Mr. President, now maybe we can get to where the rubber hits the road. I have been given the grisly task of chairing the Subcommittee on Social Security and Medicare and Family Policy. I have heard the debate going on about the looting of the Social Security trust fund. Mr. President -- and I know they will rush onto the floor. The doors will clatter open in a moment.

Let me tell you that there is no Social Security trust fund. It is a huge stack of IOU's. The trustees know that, all thoughtful Americans know that. It is listed in the trustees' report. It is a huge stack of IOU's. There is no place in there with your name on it or my name on it. When a young person pays in today, it goes out next month to the beneficiary. In the year 2011, there will not be enough payroll tax to cover it. There will be a huge accumulated surplus then. And then you go and take the IOU and say, "I am cashing this in." That is the double hit that is coming.

I related this last week. We are all aware that the Social Security program and its relation to any balanced budget constitutional amendment will always be an issue of fervent controversy. In fact, many individuals, and the well-organized interests and, oh my, the citizens and, oh, my, the AARP -- do not miss their work here -- have cited the need to "protect" Social Security as a moral justification for opposing any such constitutional amendment. We have heard more of that on the Senate floor this week, and we will hear it forever.

I trust that my colleagues will pardon me to say that I find this completely baffling -- bizarre and baffling. I see no possible sensible justification for using Social Security as an excuse for opposition to the balanced budget amendment -- none. It is but an excuse which excites the interest groups, which may be sold as a way to cover a vote against a balanced budget amendment. "CYA" here does not mean corporate youth activity. It is without substantive merit, in my view.

Let me explain fully that this is my duty as chairman of the Social Security Subcommittee to try to determine the facts. At least everybody is entitled to their own opinion, but no one is entitled to their own facts. How is the Social Security trust fund managed? This is how it is required under the law to be managed. It is a rather unfortunate that one would even have to do this, but too many in Congress, and out in the land, do not seem to "get it," I believe is the phrase they use on us around here.

We can and we still do call these things T-bills, savings bonds, whatever. But it refers to any such Treasury bond or certificate.

Before I continue, allow me to translate this bit of mumbo jumbo. What this means is what the law requires. It is what the law demands -- that when the Social Security payroll taxes come rolling in, most of them are immediately used to pay the benefits to today's recipients. The leftovers are not put in some vault or box, where we keep them, save them, and hold them for tomorrow's retirees. They are used to buy Government notes now. That is the law, that has always been the structure of Social Security. It is what is required of us. It is not "raiding" anything. It is not "breaking a promise" to anyone. That is how Social Security currently works, and it is how it was intended to work. That is what I mean when I say that the fund holds "floating IOU's." It is holding those notes from the U.S. Government, and those notes are promises to pay up at a future date.

Here we see the obvious. The payment back to Social Security at a future date will come from general revenue -- taxpayers' money. Only from the general fund will it come.

The general Government, until the appropriate time, thus holds this big bag of IOU's to Social Security, and then it has to make good on those from the general revenues, not from some separate trust fund. It comes out of general revenue when the IOU's are due. That is how it works, and that is how it was intended to work. There is no way around it, no tricks, no gimmicks, no big lump of money in a trunk sitting there that we can emotionally plead to save from raiding if we exclude Social Security from a balanced budget amendment. Those benefits are to be paid with moneys raised from the general revenues -- period.

Another way of putting it, if I may, is today's workers will support today's retirees and tomorrow's workers will support tomorrow's retirees, period. That is the law. This is how Social Security works. All of this posturing and fear mongering about how somehow a contract is being broken and that looting and pillaging, and God knows what else, and other sins are taking place, is so much guff and nonsense. It is so much like the old professor of mine. He said, "Simpson, this is opium smoke." That old professor was right. The benefits of future beneficiaries were never available to be looted. They are IOU's, and all of the cash will be raised from general revenue when those bonds became due.

Let me just show you one final chart. I want you to pay, please, strict attention to this one. These are the annual operating balances projected for Social Security as of last year. You can see that, indeed, there is a sizable surplus today, and some are using this as an excuse to oppose the balanced budget amendment. This $60 billion figure appears small because -- I ask unanimous consent for an additional 4 minutes.

They are using it as an excuse to oppose the balanced budget amendment. This $60 billion figure appears small because it is an annual figure, a consolidated figure which also includes the disability payments and does not represent the total size of the accumulated Social Security reserves which are supposed to add up to another $2 trillion. They will get to $2 trillion -- everybody needs to know that; we all know that -- before the big drawdown, the big meltdown, comes.

But you know what we always hear about this surplus. "We don't want this surplus to be counted toward balancing the budget." It is said plainly, passionately, and persuasively.

I ask you to look at the much larger picture. By the year 2020 we are also facing huge annual operating deficits, meaning that we would have to dip into the principal and the interest in this trust fund, the IOU stack, which I have already shown you is not there and eventually will only come from general revenues at that time.

Look at the size, look at the enormity of these promised obligations, all of which we have no possible way of paying unless we raise payroll taxes, and the seniors are telling you to do that to correct the program because they "ain't paying" them. Payroll taxes -- that is how you get here, and other taxes, to raise them dramatically when the time comes. There is $7 trillion in unfunded liability in the Social Security system alone.

Does anyone seriously believe that the way to "protect" Social Security is to save it from a balanced budget amendment? Can anyone seriously maintain that the fate of Social Security hangs on the budgetary treatment of funds in 1996 when these are the balances projected in the outyears? We all know this. That is no secret to anyone. To use Social Security as a pallid excuse to defeat a balanced budget amendment is absurd, hypocritical budget blather of the most odious kind. We all know what the real threat to Social Security is. It is the situation you see on this chart. It is the threat that we will do nothing. That is the threat. That is the threat -- the threat that we will let it go bankrupt on its own. But that is a debate for another day. I will not be around when the big bill comes due. But I hope in the year 2030, they will tap on my box and tell me how it all went because I can tell you where it is going to go.

My purpose today is to, hopefully, dispense with the idea that there is some promise that has been made to save the Social Security surplus in some way that we are currently violating. No. We are doing with Social Security precisely what the law demands and commands us to do -- to buy T bills. If we can be charged with failing to do anything, it is failing to balance the budget. That is what will make it harder to make good on those IOU's when they come due. It will be very hard to raise the general revenue to do that. So as long as we keep blithely adding trillions to the debt -- I ask unanimous consent for 2 more minutes.

Mr. President, let me close by saying I agree with my friend and colleague, Senator Paul Simon of Illinois, that the assured best way to protect Social Security is to pass the balanced budget amendment, or if you do not like the balanced budget amendment, to force ourselves to balance the budget. That is the one thing and the only thing that will make it possible to pay off those sacred promises to future retirees. I do not see people who like to cast those tough votes. They do not show up.

But in any event, let me say again that I find it very unseemly that anyone who refuses to help in that effort will use the looting of Social Security as an excuse not to impose a balanced budget requirement. I hope that all of you will read the Social Security Act for yourself and the sections of it -- section 201 -- and think it over closely, and then read the trustees' report. If we have a more accurate public understanding of exactly how Social Security does, indeed, work, it is my earnest, and yet possibly most naive, belief that the argument over the balanced budget amendment can take place on a more honest and informed basis.

Here we are again. One more time, we find ourselves about to cast really a historic vote. In March 1995 the Senate failed by one vote to pass this measure, a measure that has been demanded by the American people, this measure that is absolutely necessary if we are going to rescue America from bankruptcy of our children's or our grandchildren's generation.

It has been pointed out on this floor that the Federal debt is already more than $5 trillion, the figure that is hard to even comprehend. Next year Americans will pay about $240 billion just to meet the interest payment on that debt. That is almost $1,000 for every man, woman, and child in this great country. You know, it is really money for nothing. That money is not just to educate our children or fight the drug problem or find a cure for cancer. It is simply a transfer payment from the future to the past. We need to reduce those interest payments. We need to start investing in the future instead of the past. But until the annual budget is in fact balanced, all we are doing every day, every month, and every year is adding to the problem. Congresses of both parties, Presidents of both parties, all have compiled a spectacular record of failure in dealing with this fundamental issue.

That is why I believe it is time to make a fundamental change in the way we deal with it. I am not one who thinks we should tamper with the Constitution. I do not like to amend the Constitution. But I believe in the age-old principle, "If it ain't broke, don't fix it." I think it is broke this time. I think we have a problem, and we have to have a fundamental fix. We have to change the way we do things.

Mr. President, there are 5 trillion reasons convincing me that in this case our system is broken and it is time to fix it. The people of this country demand change. People of my home State of Ohio demand change.

Mike DeWine

As I was thinking about this issue, I was reminded of the crusade that a former Member of this body who represented the State of Ohio for many, many years had to say about this. Frank Lausche was and remains a legend in Ohio politics and Ohio government. He served many terms as Governor of the State of Ohio and several terms as U.S. Senator. From the time he was Governor, throughout his career here in the Senate, one theme kept recurring, and that theme was fiscal responsibility. I remember, Mr. President, as a young boy hearing grown-ups talk about what Frank Lausche was doing as Governor. There was a little debate going on. One of them said, "It is terrible. They are running a surplus. The Governor is running a surplus this year. He should be distributing that money. We have some projects and things that we need to have done." That was the kind of person Frank Lausche was. He was a person who believed in fiscal responsibility.

Let me cite what Senator Lausche said in 1962 on this floor. In 1962, Frank Lausche rose in this Chamber, and this is what he told his colleagues. Remember, this is 1962.

That was Frank Lausche, U.S. Senator from Ohio, in 1962. Mr. President, the $308 billion that Senator Lausche was talking about was not the interest on the national debt; it was the total national debt in 1962. The distinguished Senator from Ohio, Senator Frank Lausche, was right. Unless we make fundamental changes, the problem is only going to get worse and worse and worse. It is time, long past time that we do something about it. And today is our opportunity to cast a vote that will change the direction of this country and to cast a vote that really will make a difference.

Well, Mr. President, here we are engaging in the same old political flimflam, talking about a constitutional amendment to balance the budget while at the same time talking about giving away a big tax cut. That is flimflam, pure and simple. It is the very same constitutional amendment that we defeated last year in the month of March. It was a bad idea then and, unlike a fine wine or an old violin, it has gotten no better with age.

The advocates of the balanced budget amendment are known to assert that amending the Constitution -- here it is, the Constitution of the United States, right here. I carry it in my shirt pocket. I do not wear my shirt when I am sleeping so I do not have the Constitution that close to me when I am sleeping, but I carry it with me during each day. So they are known to assert that amending the Constitution is the only way, the only way, that we can eradicate the recurring budget deficits that have plagued our great Nation for a long time. We in the Congress, they say, lack the fiscal discipline and the moral backbone needed to make the painful and difficult policy choices that will actually bring the budget into balance.

What the proponents of this fiscal monstrosity fail to acknowledge is that the amendment itself will make none of these difficult choices. The difficult choices will remain to be made here. There is nothing in this constitutional amendment that tells us how we are supposed to balance the budget. There never has been. On the contrary, we in the Congress will still have to make and legislate choices regarding what programs will be cut and which taxes will be raised as a way of bringing about a balanced budget.

Amazingly, many proponents of the balanced budget amendment continue to asseverate their commitment to eliminate the Federal budget deficit out of one side of their mouth while supporting substantial tax cuts out of the other side. Certainly that remarkable oral dexterity calls into question the real possibility of actually achieving budget balance.

Just last year, as I hope we will all remember, the majority in this body voted for a budget resolution that called for approximately $250 billion in tax cuts over a 7-year period. That is money that we will have to borrow. We will have to borrow that money to finance that tax cut. And it will be money borrowed at interest.

We continue to talk about children and grandchildren and how they will bear the burden of our continuing fiscal unwisdom if we do not balance this budget. We voted for a huge tax cut. We have to borrow the money at interest to finance that tax cut. And who will pay that interest? On whom will that burden be laid? On our children.

In hindsight, that figure of $250 billion seemed almost reasonable when compared to the more than $350 billion in tax cuts approved by the other body last year under the aegis of the so-called Contract With America -- the so-called Contract With America.

You do not hear much about the so-called Contract With America. Why? Because that so-called Contract With America was not a contract with America. This is the real contract with America, the Constitution of the United States -- over 200 years old. That is the contract with America. That is the contract to which I have sworn an oath to support and defend. Many times I have sworn that. That is the real contract. And here today we are saying, amend it, amend this contract.

Simply put, combining huge tax cuts in a deficit reduction package while at the same time proclaiming the invincibility of the balanced budget amendment is entirely and completely inconsistent. How can anyone seriously and with a straight face suggest that the best way to dig ourselves out of a massive fiscal hole is to start by digging the hole a little deeper? Where is the logic in that? It defies simple common sense. And yet here we are, after a year of stalemate between the Congress and the President, and once again the majority has approved another budget resolution that includes large tax cuts for the wealthy. On the surface, the $122 billion in proposed revenue reductions may appear modest. In reality, though, a closer reading of the budget resolution reveals that the actual tax cuts may be far greater than $122 billion and could go as high as $180 billion or more. So, Mr. President, we will soon be considering, under fast-track reconciliation procedures, Republican tax cuts in the range of $200 billion. Can you believe that? These same Republicans who are constantly touting their courage and their prowess in making the hard decisions to cut the deficit and balance the budget have chosen to use the reconciliation process to enact freestanding tax cuts totaling $200 billion. I have been in politics 50 years. It is easy to vote for a tax cut. That is no sweat for anybody. That is the easiest thing, coming or going. Vote for a tax cut. So they are at it again. And they are doing so at the very same time they are trumpeting the merits of a balanced budget amendment. One has to have a nimble mind indeed to perform the intellectual gymnastics it takes to reconcile the two positions.

And now we have presidential politics coming to the fore in a big way. The Washington Post reports that sweeping tax cut proposals are under consideration by the Republicans, and one proposal would allow workers to deduct their payroll taxes from their income tax returns. The cost of that proposal to the Treasury over the next 7 years would be a whopping $350 billion. In addition, the Post reports that a 15 percent reduction in Federal income tax rates is also being considered. That particular proposal would result in lost revenues to the Treasury over the next 7 years of $630 billion.

I voted against the President's budget. I am the only Democrat who did so. And I did so because he was cutting discretionary spending, the discretionary funding of programs that are so important to the well- being of our fellow Americans, and because he was advocating a tax cut also.

In addition to the President's proposed tax cuts in his 7-year balanced budget plan, as late as Tuesday of this week, in what was billed as a major speech at Princeton University, the President unveiled additional tax cuts, so we are going to have more in this bidding battle between the Republicans and the Democrats. So he proposed additional tax cut measures that would allow tax credits of $1,500 to college freshmen and sophomores at a cost of many billions of dollars.

Not every high school graduate should go to college. I have seen students in college who had no business being there.

How can these frantic revenue reduction efforts by both political parties be squared with the florid rhetorical fulminations we constantly hear about the critical necessity for balancing the budget?

As I have said many times on this floor, this amendment is nothing less than sheer folly, folly, just as the propositions for tax cuts at the present time are sheer folly. It is like getting on two horses and starting off in two different directions at once.

This amendment is a sham. It is a charade. And it will not help to balance the budget one whit. As these tax cut proposals show, this amendment is simply being used as convenient cover for politically inspired massive tax giveaways, which will be paid for by our children and our grandchildren. The interest on those tax giveaways will be paid for by your children and mine, and your grandchildren and mine.

To make matters even more unbelievable, just this week, even under the shadow of the balanced budget amendment we saw an attempt to spend $60 billion on a missile defense system that the Pentagon does not want and that this Nation does not need if we are serious about balancing the budget. I hope all Senators will think very hard about the message we are sending to the American people with these impossibly contradictory actions on the Senate floor. They do not make sense economically, and, unfortunately, when you think about them carefully, they do not even make sense politically. Tax cuts, while always popular, become addictive in election years. But I nevertheless believe the American people will clearly understand that these tax cuts represent nothing more than political pandering -- political pandering to win votes at the expense of serious deficit reduction. The American people can see through political pandering. They do not like pandering. They do not like to be pandered to. But it is easy to see through it, is it not?

To have the same proponents of the balanced budget amendment preach the gospel of tax cuts while we are trying to balance the budget is entirely inconsistent with common sense. It reminds me of an Elmer Gantry revival meeting: Come on in, politicians. Come on in. Walk the sawdust trail. Get baptized with the holy water of the balanced budget amendment. Hallelujah. Come get it and then go on about your business, and sin, sin, sin.

We do not need a constitutional amendment to balance the budget. We do, however, need discipline and self-restraint. We must not repeat the experience of the 1980's where massive tax cuts were matched by the doubling of a peacetime defense budget from 1981 to 1991.

I have come to the mourners' bench many times. I have confessed my mistake in voting for both. So I did not come in with clean hands. I voted for that tax cut, the Reagan tax cut. And I voted to increase those deficit budgets. But at least I came to the mourners' bench and have confessed my waywardness in going astray.

That is not what the American people want. No one is clamoring for a return to the fiscal calamities of the last decade. No one, it seems, but those who are bent on irresponsibly trying to claim that a balanced budget, reductions in revenue, and large increases in defense spending are all goals which can be achieved.

On the contrary, achieving budget balance will take a combination of spending cuts in all areas of the budget and some tax increases, instead of tax cuts.

If we are really conscientious and sincere, if we really mean that we do not want to foist this great deficit burden upon our children, if we really mean that, if we really love our children that much, then we have to put aside this folly, utter folly, regarding a tax cut at this time. There are times when tax cuts are advisable, but not now.

Robert Byrd

So that is the reality of it. We prefer to pander, pander to the American people. And if there is anything that makes me sick as a politician it is a politician who panders. To propose to amend the Constitution when we are so obviously unwilling to make those hard choices is to promote a vain hope and to perpetrate a falsehood on the American people, on those people who are looking through that electronic eye. This balanced budget amendment should be again defeated. It is little more than a political mirage in a vast, dry desert of empty election-year promises.

Mr. President, I heard a generous discussion this morning on the floor of the Senate by the Senator from New Mexico, the Senator from Utah, and the Senator from Wyoming. I felt it necessary for a few minutes to at least respond to some of those comments. I have great respect for all of those Senators. But I respectfully believe that they are wrong on the issue of Social Security and its relationship to the balanced budget amendment.

I observe again the history so that people understand where we are. These facts I expect are not in dispute. In 1983 it was determined that Social Security was going to be in some longer-term difficulty and a Social Security reform package was enacted by the Congress. I was a part of that because I was a part of the Ways and Means Committee in the U.S. House that actually originated the legislation.

In that legislation we determined to do something very responsible. We determined to trim back some benefits in Social Security, extend the age for Social Security recipients from 65 to 67 over a long period of time and raise some payroll taxes, all of that in order to create a yearly surplus in the Social Security trust funds to save it for the long term.

This year $69 billion more is being collected in the Social Security trust fund than is needed this year for Social Security. Why is that the case? Is that an accident? No. As I said yesterday, we recognized that the war babies were going to retire after the turn of the century. America's largest baby crop would hit the retirement rolls. That is going to cause maximum strain on the Social Security system.

Byron Dorgan

I said yesterday, partially tongue in cheek, that the war babies resulted from an outpouring of love and affection in this country, immediately following the Second World War, and people getting back together and reacquainted, and the largest production of babies in the recorded history of this country.

After the turn of the century -- 2005, 2010, 2015 -- those babies will become eligible to hit the retirement rolls. At that point we needed to have some planning in the Social Security system for funds to be available to meet those needs.

This year $69 billion in excess money is being raised in the Social Security system. It is not an accident. It is a deliberate, forced national savings to be available to meet the needs after the turn of the century.

My friends on the other side of the aisle say, "Well, that is not special money. That's just regular money. We put it right into the old operating budget of the Federal Government and count it as other revenues." In fact, they count it as other revenues such so in the year 2002, when they say their budget is in balance, if you took the Social Security money out of their budget, it would be $108 billion in deficit. But they say it does not matter. It is all the same money.

It is not the same money. Someone working this morning has a tax taken out of their paycheck, and they are told by this Government that is a Social Security FICA tax that is going to be put into a trust fund and can only be used for one purpose -- not for offsetting against building star wars, not as an offset against cutting taxes for the wealthy -- it can be used only to put in a trust fund to be used for the Social Security needs of the future.

But that is not what the majority party wants to do. They want to take that enormous amount of money, raised by a aggressive payroll tax, and slide it over here into the operating budget of the Federal Government and say, "By the way, now we've got more revenue over here so we can build the star wars project for $60 billion. We can have big tax cuts. We can do all of these things that we want to do even as we claim to want to balance the budget." I do not allege that they are not operating in good faith. I only say that they are wrong on the issue of Social Security.

One person who spoke this morning said there is no trust fund. One who spoke this morning said there was a trust fund, and we are not misusing it. Another said there is a trust fund, and we are misusing it, and we promise to stop by the year 2008. The three stages of Social Security denial.

If we are willing to do what is necessary, what we promised workers and retirees we would do in 1983, we will set aside the Social Security revenues in a trust fund, not count them as part of the operating revenue, balance the budget honestly, and move on.

That is our job. That is our task. We will offer a unanimous consent request on the floor of the Senate to allow a constitutional amendment to be offered which I voted for previously that is identical in every respect to the one offered by the majority party with one exception. That is, section 7, which will describe that the Social Security surplus funds shall not be counted as part of operating revenues.

Orrin Hatch

Mr. President, this is the only balanced budget amendment that has ever passed the House of Representatives. It is the only one that has a chance of passing both Houses. All of the unanimous consent requests in the world are not going to bring up an amendment that will be acceptable to both Houses, except this amendment. Everybody knows that. For these people to bring up another amendment at this late date is just a subterfuge.

Orrin Hatch

There have been six Democrats who before have always voted for the balanced budget amendment but have been using the Social Security pretext as a charade to cover their backs. Last year, every one voted for Clinton's 1997 budget that does not protect Social Security in the way they want it protected. I do not think they argued with the President to get that in there. The fact is, it is a charade. I hope everybody knows it.

Orrin Hatch

Not only did the Clinton budget of 1997 not balance in the year 2002, under CBO's more cautious economic and technical assumptions. Without Social Security receipts and assets and deficit calculations, it would have been $184.5 billion out of balance in the year 2002. It is just phony. Without Social Security's receipts and assets in deficit calculations, the Clinton budgets would never balance. The fact is the Republican budget would be balanced by the year 2005 without Social Security.

Orrin Hatch

These people argue that they want to protect Social Security, yet they make the situation worse for Social Security by not voting for the balanced budget amendment that would protect it. We keep the status quo of setting up budgets that do not protect Social Security like they want to protect. How phony can you get?

Orrin Hatch

As a matter of fact, let me quote Washington columnist Charles Krauthammer, who has exposed twice the Clinton position, the administration's unconscionable human-shield strategy that they are protecting Social Security. In a column entitled, "Social Security Trust Fund Whopper," he writes:

Orrin Hatch

This is the only balanced budget amendment that could pass. Being the only one that can pass, the fact of the matter is there is going to be no protection when it is voted down today, and this President is going to continue to put up budgets that literally do not protect it, either. To use the term of my distinguished friends from North Dakota, "will continue to loot Social Security." Yet, they voted for those budgets.

Orrin Hatch

To me, there is something inconsistent here. The only chance in the world, the only chance in the history of this country to have an amendment that will put some fiscal discipline into the Constitution, and they are voting against it under the guise they are protecting Social Security, when, in fact, they make Social Security worse because they put off further doing anything about it. To me, that is absolutely amazing.

Mr. President, I wish to compliment Senator Hatch from Utah for his leadership, as well as Senator Craig from Idaho for his leadership, as well as Senator Simon, and most of all, Senator Dole, for his leadership, because they strongly support passing a constitutional amendment to balance the budget, as the American people do.

Mr. President, we need to pass this amendment today. The House has passed it. The Senate came within one vote last year. We need to pass it this year. We need to pass it today and send it to the States for ratification.

Government spending has put the American people $5.1 trillion into debt. In this Chamber, we often speak about the national debt as the Federal Government debt, but, of course, this debt will be paid by the American people.

The American people -- not the Federal Government -- will work to pay the taxes that go toward these Treasury bonds. The American people -- not the Federal Government -- will manufacture products, raise crops, program computers, and do the millions of jobs that generate growth in our economy. So, although we are entrusted to spend the money that the American people work to earn, we continue to struggle to balance the Federal budget.

This Congress made the tough choices, but the President exploited our good work for political advantage, and he demagoged the issues. Unfortunately, without the Amendment as an enforcement mechanism, I do not believe that a balanced budget will be passed and signed into law. It stops the posturing and the revolving votes and the other games that will bankrupt the next generations.

I am not eager to amend the Constitution. We have done so just 27 times in over two centuries. It is a serious matter. Senators are right to take pause before casting a vote to amend our Constitution. Unfortunately, however, I have concluded that this amendment is necessary. The national debt is just too large.

In the 1820's, President Andrew Jackson, a North Carolinian by birth, called the national debt "a curse to the republic" and "incompatible with real independence." In the early 19th century, however, the Federal Government was disciplined and successfully paid off the national debt.

The specter of a $5.1 trillion national debt is apparently insufficient to force this Government to bring the budget into balance. Interest on the national debt, which we continue to wrack up, is the third largest component of the Federal budget. The average taxpayer will send $882 to the IRS in 1996 just to pay the interest on the national debt. Interest alone will consume 41 percent of the income taxes that the American people send to the Treasury.

The average child born today faces a lifetime tax burden of $187,000 just to pay the interest on the national debt. In effect, we hand a $187,000 bill to every newborn American along with his birth certificate. We do this because the President vetoed the first balanced budget in a some 20 years.

How can we explain this to them? What will we say? Can we really tell them that it is fair to welcome them to the world with a $187,000 bill? All because we do not want to offend the groups that line up for a piece of the Federal pie.

President Clinton talks about deep cuts and draconian cuts. What cuts will our children make in their family budgets to pay off this $187,000 bill? All because the President will lose a campaign issue if we slow the rate of increase in Federal spending. Is that really too much to ask?

There are claims on the other side of the aisle of support for a balanced budget. However, the first balanced budget in a generation passed in this Chamber on November 18, 1995, with no Democrat votes, and it was vetoed by a Democrat President.

The Constitution, as we all know, was amended to permit the imposition of an income tax. I hope that few Senators consider the 16th Amendment amongst the more high-minded provisions of the Constitution. Mr. President, if we can amend the Constitution to increase taxes on the American people, I hope that we can amend it to ensure that their government spends their hard-earned money responsibly.

Thomas Jefferson first read the Constitution upon his return from France and recommended that the Constitution include limitations upon the powers of the Federal Government to borrow. Mr. President, if we do not impose a restraint on the power of this government to borrow, we will not balance the budget and ensure that it remains balanced.

The record must show, Mr. President, and it must show it clearly, if Social Security is to remain solvent into the next decade and into the next century, the budget of the Federal Government must be balanced. The only security for Social Security is a Government that lives within its financial means. If our Federal Government goes bankrupt or if we demand of our citizens that they pay an 85 to 90 percent tax on their income, then Social Security and every other security program for people in our country is in jeopardy.

I am sorry the other side of the aisle does not get it, and they do not get it. We have heard one phony argument after another, that somehow balancing a Federal budget in one way or another damages Social Security. Yet, the very Social Security actuarials, the people who watch the programs, say if you want to save Social Security you balance the Federal budget.

Today, we have that opportunity as a U.S. Senate to secure for the future Social Security by allowing the American people -- let me repeat, by allowing the American people -- the right and the opportunity to vote on whether they want this Government to balance its budget by passing a balanced budget amendment to our Constitution.

The good news is that we still have time to act. That opportunity will not last forever. But if we act now, we can: create 6 million more jobs by the year 2002; make homes, education, and family necessities more affordable; provide greater security for our senior citizens; and raise our children's standard of living by a third.
