Thanks to an insane government run by criminals.
When will Americans wake up to the fraud being perpetrated on them?
Biggest spending is on military, VA healthcare and welfare.
It is the government's job to protect this country, which means a strong military. It is the government's duty to protect our borders, which means adequate border security.
It is not the government's job to get involved in most other things, like wealth redistribution. And if the government wasn't so involved in the free market, it's likely some company would have advanced in their research for renewable energy. All we got from spending billions during Obama years was Solyndra and other companies that took the money and ran. Didn't produce shit.
Our government's priorities are well-defined in the constitution. Foreign aid to hostile countries- not their job. Redistributing money for illegal aliens, able-bodied people who don't work, and a healthcare system that doesn't work- not their job.
Government shouldn't be in the student loan business or any business. Once government decides to pay the bill by confiscation of the worker's wages, prices go up and the businesses that fund campaigns rake in the big money.
Government screwed over veterans by spending too much on a poorly run government system called the VA. No way in hell should they try to run the entire country's health system the same way.
Leftists seem to think that government should be heavily involved in everyone's life. That is unconstitutional.
If they would stick to their duty, as defined by our founding document, we wouldn't be in this mess. If private companies were allowed to compete and we had government out of the way, everything from healthcare to rebuilding infrastructure would be way cheaper.
We had roads, bridges, transportation, schools, hospitals and charities long before government decided to take over those things. Once they did, quality went down and cost went up.
welfare?
do you mean social security, the annuity i paid for with my salary?
