Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Balanced-Budget Amendment to the Constitution: Hearings Before the Subcommittee on the Constitution of the Committee on the Judiciary, United States Senate, One Hundred Third Congress, Second Session on S. J. Res. 41
In politics it is easier to duck a difficult decision than to face it. We need the discipline of a constitutional amendment to force us to face fiscal realities.
Every other generation of Americans took care of themselves and invested in the future. We are the first generation of Americans to partially take care of ourselves and borrow from the future.
