Some
people say it will break the country if we provide for our unemployed.
They say we can't find a way to revitalize our basic industries, and that
acting against unfair trade practices will surely start a trade war. They say
our national leadership and the Congress don’t have the answers or ability to
address our problems responsibly. I can't agree with the pessimists....People
said that Social Security...was doomed because the Congress couldn't even agree
on how big the problem was, let alone solve it. Well it wasn't easy...For a
solution, everyone had to give a little, and every special interest had to
yield to the public interest. We even came to the eleventh hour and
almost didn't do the job... but we did.....Solving our problems won't be easy,
but what worthwhile is easy to achieve?.... John Heinz 1983
