Mills expected correctly that health care costs would continue to rise dramatically over time and, thus, would bankrupt Social Security. He saw Social Security, Medicare, and Medicaid as programs that people need to rely on and it would be economically, psychologically, and politically devastating to terminate. Mills was also acknowledged as the primary tax expert in Congress and the leading architect of the <a href="/wiki/Tax_Reform_Act_of_1969" title="Tax Reform Act of 1969">Tax Reform Act of 1969</a>. Mills favored a <a href="/wiki/Fiscal_conservatism" title="Fiscal conservatism">conservative fiscal</a> approach, adequate tax revenue to fund government programs, a balanced budget, while also supporting various social programs, especially <a href="/wiki/Social_Security_(United_States)" title="Social Security (United States)">Social Security</a> and <a href="/wiki/Disability_insurance" title="Disability insurance">Disability</a>, adding farmers and public employees to Social Security, unemployment compensation, and <a href="/wiki/National_health_insurance" title="National health insurance">national health insurance</a>. </p><p>In 1967, when President <a href="/wiki/Lyndon_B._Johnson" title="Lyndon B.

Johnson accepted his challenge and balanced the federal budget during his last fiscal year as president. Mills congratulated him, as he had actually cut more spending even than Mills had demanded. Mills and Johnson often laughed about Mills forcing a big spender to become the first president in decades to not only balance the budget but to start paying down the national debt.
