We've grown into a morass of programs that IMO threaten the nation's existence Not long ago I did a back of an envelop estimate, dividing the deficit spending by the population numbers and the number of months in a year. It appears that we are spending about $500 per person per month of money that is BORROWED, above the government's actual revenues. Without such massive (borrowed) subsidy, we would long ago discover that we are in the depths of a depression. We need to cut expenditures, or face catastrophic consequences.
