And 11 that it's important that we pass this comprehensive tobacco settlement th give us the tools we need to protect our children from tobacco. Every ye still the biggest public health problem in America — every day, 3,000 ki illegally start to smoke; a thousand of them will die sooner because of it dwarfs the threat of cancer, it dwarfs the threat of alcoholism, it dwarfs threat of getting killed in a car when you get your drivers license. It dwe everything. It will cost more young people bigger parts of their future th anything else. So we're going to try to pass that this year. And if we do, will open up a whole new vista. That's very important. The second biggest thing we can do, I think, and this leads to the last to] wanted to mention. I've done everything I could in a world which is con being torn apart by people's differences to build one community in Arne have tried to take the venom out of political life — with mixed results. (Laughter.) I have done my best to bring people together across racial ai religious lines. And I've also tried to bring us together across generation lines. And the most important proposal that we have on the table for this is the proposal that we couldn't even have imagined even a year ago. Now, the other thing I want to talk about a little on this is the future of health care. Hillary had an idea that we should basically give a gift to th country - that our generation should give a set of gifts to the country fo millenium. And we thought basically of two things. One was that literal millennial trust, which she helped to put together with all the rest of our people with the theme of remembering the past and imagining the future so one of the things that we're trying to do is to put some of the money, if v get a tobacco settlement, put a big chunk of the money into a research ft In addition, we want to, with public and private money, save the Star-S[ Banner, which, by the way, is in tatters and needs $13 million to be save our precious documents, all of which — the Bill of Rights, the Declaratk Independence, and the Constitution — all of them need serious work. Th very important part of building the kind of society we want. We have to respect our past and always be investing in the future. It looks like we're going to balance the budget this year if the economic difficulties of Asia don't slow our growth too much. If it does, we'll still balance the budget next year. And it is then projected that we will have . structural surplus for quite a long time. That is, the economy will go up down and some years we may have it and some years maybe not. But ot multi-year period, if we stay with the discipline we have now, we're goi: start running big surpluses.
