The news site all refer back to Paul’s sites, that is what I was saying.
I never said any of the candidates were like the Founders, Paul is the farthest away.
So what about the defense budget, one of the few rolls of the federal government is to defend the shores (whatever that may mean).
It is welfare that is killing us, with the total around 60% of the budget.

You obviously do not click on hyper links.

The last link in previous post with the budget does not support your claim.

60% of the budget is not welfare. LOL!

20% is Defense (over 2 Trillion Dollars)

20% is Social Security (We pay that through work so it’s not welfare)

23% is Medicaid (We pay that through work so it’s not welfare)

So there is your 60%.

Here is the link again.
