Favor me again. How do Americans benefit from an "increased load"?

The resulting interest payments will provide a high enough tax load to create a barrier to any increased load.

Funny how you never see the trillion dollars of debt is what has been spent on social programs with no results. LBJ's dream was a transfer of the hard earned money of the working people to a bloated bureaucracy. The same percentage of poor existed then as now. There would be no deficits and we would have the most staggering economy if not for the drain from this wealth transfer. The government once took less than 4 % of a person's earnings. But in your fantasy world spending 100 dollars on a hammer is just peachy

1 million dollars is what we just spent for a prisoner to be given an artificial heart. 1 million dollars. Do you think any sane society can spend more on the worst members of its society than on the people who earn the money and survive ? Tiger its why only a few had anything in the Soviet Union. Soon only the lawyers politicians and the CEO's will have anything.
