It is about one hour. Look. You cannot have it both ways. You cannotd it said, have it both ways. What i suspect will happen after i get done, as has been the case with every one of the speakers on this side, the gentleman on the other side will say that residence in my hometown will get a tax break of 1000. I would ask the gentleman if he would add to that the amount of by debt that is being borne each one of these families. By the way i have it calculated, it cost a family of four 20,000 for your debt that you are willing to levy against our children and grandchildren, in order to give the richest 1 of the americans a massive tax break. You cannot deny the mass math, that almost all the benefit goes to the people at the top. The top 1 are huge and fisheries. You cannot deny them math that 5400 families will get a massive tax break.

, i want to say a few words about some of what has been said thus far. My democratic colleagues always professed to be the champions of middleclass families. We see that rhetoric in full bloom, on full display today. That is why it is astonishing to atthat they are so opposed the repeal of the individual mandate tax. They talk as though everything is fine with our health care system. And that the repeal of this taxable said it all tumbling down. Obamacare is already failing. Largely because the mandate has failed to do what it was designed to do. It has not improved markets. It has not brought down premiums. Markets are in decline. Premiums continually rise, despite the presence of this tax. The great irony of obamacare is that on one hand it makes Health Insurance too expensive for many to afford, while on the other hand it imposes a tax on those who do not buy it. The mandate has not improved the health care system. It has imposed significant burdens on middleclass and low income fam
