Cause you need to increase revenue...period. You can't simple keep cutting away at the revenue stream then further decrease and decrease then you lose more and more funding. I know the GOP is out for smaller government, but its been proven again government oversight is absolutely necessary in some aspects. If banks could govern themselves properly, if giant comapnies could not try to brazenly break environmental laws then lobby to take away funding from the EPA. If corporate america were a tad bit honest then a smaller government would easily be justifiable, HOWEVER. When you get poisoned wells from fracking, a banking industry that sends out foreclosure notices or credit rating agencies that outsource to India there is a problem and thats when government oversight is needed. To fund 2 wars requires money, to upgrade the nations infrastructure requires money.If you cut and cut and cut, how do such things get funded. Are you willing to risk a smaller government and trust that whats being told to you by the banks and companies drilling by your well to tell you the truth? Are you willing to take cuts to your medicare or have to pay more and get a private provider? I'm asking you these questions because once you start cutting then say balance then you need to cut further due to inflation. |
