Mr. Speaker. I would like to talk about balancing the budget. There are 4 million illegal immigrants that have walked across our border. and the INS wants to build a big fence. Now. would you walk across the border illegally if you got free food. free housing. free health care. and free education? I think you would too. To boot. you do not have to pay one single dime of tax. I say. Mr. Speaker. we have GIs falling out of chairs on arm rests overseas. and we have people illegally crossing our borders. Why do we not support H.R. 4387. put a few GIs and a couple of Jeeps on the border. maybe we will help to even balance our budget.
