They are worried about their childrens opportunities in the future. and they are worried about the American dream and fulfilling that dream through college education and home ownership. Mr. Speaker. they asked me why we need to be spending $7.1 billion each year defending Japan and the Asian basin and $17.7 billion each year defending Western Europe when the old Warsaw Pact no longer is a military threat. and when here at home our own borders are not secure from illegal aliens and drug smugglers. Hoosiers asked me why our students here in the most powerful Nation in the world. are behind students from other countries in math and science skills. They asked me why so many people In Washington are talking about sending our American tax dollars to the Soviet Union when our national debt continues to escalate and spiral.
