I dont think its coincidental that the tax increases that this have come out of this Congress. the Pelosi Congress. and the noises coming out of the Ways and Means Committee. particularly the Chair. have added instability to our New York stock exchange and all of our financial markets. Once the Inertia of this continues. we might find ourselves in a significantly poorer situation and not very far from now. I. also. on the immigration issue. there were some statistics that I had made a promise that I would unfold here and send this message out. and that is that we are faced with a tremendous amount of loss here in America in the lives of Americans because we are not enforcing at our border. As the gentleman from Texas said. we need to first stop the bleeding at the border and get that under control. We need to push all traffic. both. all products. all contraband. all human traffic. through the ports of entry. We need to beef up our ports of entry. You know. as I was sitting in an immigration hearing a couple or 3 years ago. I began to listen to the testimony about how many people died in the Arizona desert in a year. It is a significant number then. it was about 250.
