The problem is not what we spend, it’s what we tax. Taxes have never been lower since world war 2, and over 16,000 people making over $500,000 last year didn’t pay any income tax. We’ve cut America’s competitiveness and standing in the world to the bone. What else are you going to cut? I’m not wild about the idea of letting seniors and the poor die in the streets. Every other country in the world outcompetes us on how we treat our own citizens.
