Senate Passes Plan to Cut $35 Billion From Deficit
By Jonathan Weisman
Washington Post Staff Writer
Friday, November 4, 2005; A01
The Senate approved sweeping deficit-reduction
legislation last night that would save about $35 billion over the
next five years by cutting federal spending on prescription drugs,
agriculture supports and student loans, while clamping down on
fraud in the Medicaid program.
The measure would also open Alaska's Arctic National
Wildlife Refuge to oil drilling, a long-sought goal of the oil
industry that took a major step forward after years of political
struggle. A bipartisan effort to strip the drilling provision narrowly
failed.
The Senate bill, which passed 52 to 47, is the first in
nearly a decade to tackle the growth of entitlement spending, the
part of the federal budget that rises automatically based on set
formulas and population changes.
It would shave payments to some farmers by 2.5 percent,
while eliminating a major cotton support program and trimming
agriculture conservation spending. A proposal to limit payments
to rich farmers failed yesterday. The measure passed largely
along party lines, with only two Democrats voting for it and five
Republicans voting against it.
Yesterday's action is part of an effort by congressional
Republicans to demonstrate fiscal discipline after widespread
complaints of profligate spending on Capitol Hill. ....51.... many
Democrats and some moderate Republicans are concerned that
the effort may go too far, prominent Republicans in the Senate
and House said the cuts were necessary to slow the rate of
spending and control a deficit projected to total $314 billion by
the end of the fiscal year.
During a speech yesterday, former House majority leader
Tom Delay (R-Tex) repeatedly apologized for excessive
spending by Congress, including recent highway legislation that
was ....52.... with lawmakers’ pet projects. After noting that House
Republicans have voted to cut taxes every year since winning
the majority in 1994, DeLay acknowledged, “Our record on
spending has not been as consistent, ....53.... .”

The Internet at Risk
Some 12,000 people convened last week in Tunisia for
a United Nations conference about the Internet. Many delegates
want an end to the U.S. Commerce Department's control over
the assignment of Web site addresses (for example,
http://www.washington-%20post.com/ ) and e-mail accounts (for
example, [email protected]). The delegates' argument is that
unilateral U.S. control over these domain names reflects no
more than the historical accident of the Internet's origins. Why
should the United States continue to control the registration of
French and Chinese Internet addresses? It doesn't control the
registration of French and Chinese cars, whatever Henry Ford's
historic role in democratizing travel was.
The reformers' argument is attractive in theory and
dangerous in practice. In an ideal world, unilateralism should be
avoided. But in an imperfect world, unilateral solutions that run
efficiently can be better than multilateral ones that ....51....
The job of assigning domain names offers huge
opportunities for abuse. ....52.... controls this function can decide to
keep certain types of individuals or organizations offline
(dissidents or opposition political groups, for example). Or it can
allow them on in exchange for large fees. The striking feature of
U.S. oversight of the Internet is that such abuses have not
occurred.
It's possible that a multilateral overseer of the Internet
might be just as efficient. But the ponderous International
Telecommunication Union, the U.N. body that would be a
leading candidate to take over the domain registry, has a record
of resisting innovation - including the advent of the Internet.
Moreover, a multilateral domain-registering body would
be caught between the different visions of its members: on the
one side, autocratic regimes such as Saudi Arabia and China
that want to restrict access to the Internet; on the other side,
open societies that want low barriers to entry. These clashes of
vision would probably make multilateral regulation inefficiently
political.
You may say that this is a fair price to pay to uphold the
principle of sovereignty. If a country wants to keep certain users
from registering domain names (Nazi groups, child
pornographers, criminals), then perhaps it has a right to do so.
But the clinching argument is that countries can exercise that
sovereignty to a reasonable degree without controlling domain
names. They can order Internet users in their territory to take
offensive material down. They can order their banks or credit
card companies to refuse to process payments to unsavory Web sites based abroad. Indeed, governments' ample ability to
regulate the Internet has already been demonstrated by some of
the countries pushing for reform, such as authoritarian China.
The sovereign nations of the world have no need to wrest
control of the Internet from the United States, because they
already have it.
