i think he might have enjoyed this particular saying from franklin delano roosevelt. i use this whenever i start my presentations here on the floor. because it reminds me of values, at least the value that i think ought to be basic to our work here in cofpblgt so allow me to -- congress. so allow me to repeat not for the first but maybe for another dozen times, the test of our progress is not whether we add more to the abundance of those it is e much, but rather whether we provide enough for those who have too little. the test of our progress. it's interesting that there's so much we need to do. so much we need to do here in america. particularly for those who have too little. it's interesting to note what has actually happened over the last several years. are we really making progress? well, i think we ought to spend about our talking infrastructure. nd are we making progress? well, no, not really. we once were the most advanced infrastructure, highways, rail systems, transit systems, airports, maritime ports in the world. we had great drinking water systems. you'd c
