smith: governor? mr. reagan: when i opposed medicare, there was another piece of legislation meeting the same problem before the congress. i happened to favor the other piece of legislation and thought that it would be better for the senior citizens and provide better care than the one that was finally passed. i was not opposing the principle of providing care for them. i was opposing one piece of legislation versus another. there is something else about social security. of course, it doesn't come out of the payroll tax. it comes out of a general fund, but something should be done about it. i think it is disgraceful that the disability insurance fund in social security finds checks going every month to tens of thousands of people who are locked up in our institutions for crime or for mental illness, and they are receiving disability checks from social security every month while a state institution provides for all of their needs and their care. mr. smith: president carter, you have the last word on this q

moore: jason smith and i are good friends. he's a very clever man. what he was talking about there was the fact that they elected to make permanent those tax cuts that benefit corporations and were they to renew them that will add $4.6 trillion to the deficit. what they allowed to expire were those provisions that -- that helped families. i just want to say that the standard deduction, that helped a lot of families. but at the same time, doubling the standard deduction of people lost tax du deductions that they had. lost other benefits. and again, those tax cuts -- for small business you take a small business, last small business, say you had a small business that had a net income of $100,000. that tax cut was about $2,000. as opposed to the millions of dollars that larger corporations receive. there definitely was no equity. so -- the other thing is that the $4.6 trofl tax cuts that jason smith has said we need to renew would be added to the deficit and not -- and the joint committee on taxation, the federal reserve board, other economists have said
