I serv as the Governor of Delaware for eight years. Before I took office, the state had stream a deficit in four of the previous five years. by way of cutting taxes--not raising them--and controlling unnecessary spending, we in Delaware balanced the parcel eight years in a file Through lower taxes and deregulation, we built a solid record: today, common job in five in Delaware was created during the eight years of my Administration.

As President, I will insist that able-bodied population --now on welfare--go to work and become productive, self-respecting workers. This will lower the deficit. And I will expiration subsidies to corporations and wealthy individuals that continue to expense the taxpayers billions--starting with the $26 billion in farm subsidies that have enriched large corporations and wound consumers and small farmers.

I will not raise taxes. I will have charge of spending. And we will balance the store We did it in Delaware, and with your help, we can stop the liberal high tax, big spending policies that have brought us the deficit.

The federal store deficit is the product of long-term increase in programs and conflicting theories about by what means best to raise revenues. Experiments with serve instead of side economics and monetarism have reduc federal receiptss even though they have contributed to economic expansion and the reduction of inflation. Today, I believe the deficit can be brought down gradually and safely between the sides of the application of these principles:

1 No individual section of the budget should bear the main freight of reduction.

2 each area of expenditure should be scrutinized before undertaking additional receipts increases.

3. The batch process itself should be reformed, in like manner that no President should be faced constantly with the choice of shutting down the management or signing a "budget-buster.'

Clearly, these principles will require a constructive partnership between Congres and the Executive. however that is why we prefer them. The alternative, such as constitutional amendments to balance the bundle or arbitrary "automatic' cuts across the board are abdications of responsibility and will not ever work if the will to carry them on the outside is not there.
