What Does Big Government Have To Do With Big Debt?

Big Government Really Does Lead To More Debt

Out of control government expansion comes at a cost; an increase in the national debt. Since a big government needs to employ more people and systems to administer it, government growth leads to a government with a spending problem. Since the introduction of entitlement program after entitlement program also adds to the federal debt how could we not have a government with a spending problem?

Of course bureaucrats don't think they have a spending problem but they cannot deny the fact that throwing money at every problem is the only solution they know. They waste money without a second thought. Instead of cleaning up the waste and fraud that exists, they just throw more money at the problem.

Watch Who You Trust

You may personally agree with the propaganda spewed about. You may not think that our big government has a spending problem because you trust politicians, government bureaucrats and the media. They have you snookered.

By continually grinding the lies they have convinced you that the economic problems we are facing in this country today are due to a tax problem not their spending problems. If you swallow the lies then you must not have any issues with the out of control tax increases.

Get Your Wallets Out America

The government is not bringing in enough tax revenue to cover their out-of-control spending so they have to spin it into a tax problem. By making it a tax problem, they shift the blame. Bottom line, government bureaucrats are not taking responsibility for their spending. They are dumping the responsibility on you... you do not pay enough taxes. If you have been paying attention to your tax bill increases you know that is a disgusting lie.

No matter how they spin it, the U.S government has a spending problem, not a tax problem, period! When the Obama administration can increase the national debt by $4.9 trillion within 3 ½ years, there should be alarms going off all over the place. Why aren't the American people enraged?

It's Normal, Isn't It?!

Unfortunately, debt has become normal operating procedure with this government. The Bush administration increased the national debt by $4.8 trillion over an 8 year period. That was considered outrageous. But the debt that the Obama administration has racked up in just 3 ½ years is considered perfectly "normal". Why isn't anyone alarmed by the horrendous debt this administration has burdened us and future generations with? Americans are becoming saps. Unless we smarten up we will be carrying this debt forever. Is that what you want?
