i am on the agriculture committee, health education labor and pensions, i am on a committee called budget committee which sadly has been relegated into almost useless appendage in the federal government. we haven't done a budget that we have adhered to in decades. i come from an agriculture community. i look at how we spend money in the farm bill and 82% of it is for nutrition. 11% would be for safety net programs with insurance commodity supports, it begs the question in that we don't do budgets anymore. it ought to be things that we do well. you have to live within your means. i like to point out while we have opportunities like this, we are currently borrowing nearly 30% of what we spend annually. it was closer to 20% when i got here. that is not a good business plan for the long run. mostly preaching at this point. i'm going to be interested to see how the farm bill has turned into a nutrition bill and it is all part of the issue. you find out here senator thune pointed to earlier that the thrifty food plan increased by over 21% and it is now going to shove the farm bill into over a -
