Everyone knows we are suffering general economic recession. So many Americans are asking:
“Why does the federal government take so much of my hard-earned money in taxes instead of cutting spending for many of the things in the federal budget that are obviously unconstitutional, unnecessary and unwise?”
Wouldn’t this be an excellent time for American taxpayers to demand that members of Congress cut much – why not all – really unjustified spending?
The average taxpayer may not understand the intricacies of federal budgeting. But members of Congress are supposed to. So it is the job of Congress to eliminate inappropriate spending, balance the budget and avoid too-high taxes.
What responsibility of the members of Congress is more basic?
What a difference it would make if Congress would just do its job well.
