The American PEOPLE owe 14 trillion dollars in debt and counting. If the American taxpayer isn't responsible for that debt,
who is?
The American Taxpayer works until May 15th every year to settle his obligation to government. At some point, government has to say, "hey, we are already taking half of what you make, now we have to step up and be responsible."
The government needs to spend less of what they take in, and dedicate some of that money to paying down the debt. Asking the taxpayer to fork over more is obscene.
