Description

Audio cassette from the NaDeane Walker Anderson collection. In the first clip of the audio, Congressman Jim Mattox prefaces his lecture by asking a group of people what issues interests them and allows each individual and/or reporter to respond with a variety of social, economic, and governmental topics. Mattox begins his lecture by pointing out the abundance of issues Congress faces and votes on. In the remainder of the clip, Mattox talks about balancing budgets, taxes on an individual and corporate level, government programs such as social security, and a breakdown of various approaches to taxes and government spending devised by Congress. The second half of the first clip contains low quality sound and is difficult to hear. In the second clip, the lecture by Congressman Mattox continues and sound quality improves at the 3 minute mark. Mattox discusses taxes on the energy sector, President Jimmy Carter's economic policies, status of the government's spending and inflation rates, the water supply in Dallas, and social security. At the 21:30 minute mark, a new interview begins between NaDeane and an unidentified federal worker. They discuss issues such as social security, retirement, Bell Helicopter and Barbara Jordan.
