If anyone has any misconceptions about what drives our federal expenditures, these charts should have a sobering effect. The entitlement programs and debt servicing costs are about $130 billion a month. Look at all those things that total $134 billion that won’t be funded. Active duty military pay and federal salaries total only $17.1 billion. Food stamps are $9.3 billion.
Since the idiots in washington crashed the economy, food stamps and welfare have “necessiarily skyrocketed.”
The “progress” of socialism has tipped the government into a promised course of economic failure and that socialist spending is not just limited to entitlement programs. There are whole agencies dedicated to providing entitlements to the socialist machine in unions, foreign governments and globalist movers and shakers, foundations, the Universities and in corporate welfare.
Trimming here and trimming there is not going to help. We either cut the scope of government and axe the socialist “progress” or, like the Soviet Union, we don’t stand a chance. Socialism is not a viable economic system and it is directly opposed to the constitution.
