the children's television act is now but, of course, embedded as another brick in the tower of baa bellt is the federal government bureaucracy. forcing television broadcasters the play mother, may i, with the fcc. once again in 2003, the second bush administration, bush 43, they made much of what they called compassionate conservativism. and one of their things, karl rove has written about this at length and very proudly, they campaigned on something called no child left behind because they wanted to get moderate suburban couples with kids. so they win. and as you recall, they won grandly with losing the vote to al gore, the popular vote to al gore, and i think there was this small matter of 537 votes in florida and five supreme court justices, but, hey. so in this budget a winning issue for them. they get there, they pass this legislation with the help of that great republican senator ted kennedy and an ohio republican congressman somewhat obscure at the time named john boehner. so this is now law and adding billions and billions and billions to the $17 trillion debt that george will w

is i'm very concerned about interest and interest rate, and i think all of us are sort of whistling baas the graveyard on that. if interest rates went back to 6% on the national debt which it was in the year 2000, just the interest on the debt would be 1.02 trillion. if that number rings a bell, it should, because that's the amount of the budget that we just passed. in other words, the interest on the debt would equal the entire discretionary budget that was just passed in this body. and i believe we have to really be worried about that pause we've within lull -- because we've been lulled by these low interest rates over the last few years. i would like to ask your reaction to a proposal that would do tax reform -- everybody's talking about tax reform and where to get it, chairman camp and everyone else is, the difference is what do we do with the money? and just like senator graham, i would invite my colleagues on the other side to talk about a tax reform package where the revenues were dedicated -- i hate to use the term lock box, i'm old enough to to remember that ill use of a phrase

well, we lowered our general obligation rating on chicago's debt to baa 1 from a3.g on it? i get different numbers. i don't mean to interrupt, but what number do you peg? >> we adjust these figures basically to put everything on an apples-to-apples comparison by using a common discount rate. so the number that we have in terms of chicago's unfunded pension liability is $32 billion. and that is eight times its operating revenue. now, that compares to an average for the municipalities that we rate of about one time. so a very distinct outliar from most of the entities we rate. >> all right. it's still not junk, and whether it's s&p or moody's, the reasons seem clear, they have a vibrant tax base to draw from. but in the end you underscore the problem they're either going to need to cut spending or raise revenues. what does that mean in english? raise taxes like essentially property taxes or deal with the underfunded pension liabilities. in your report you basically say they really don't seem to have the stomach for it. can you comment on that notion? >> well, you're r
