How responsible spending is will ultimately decide how much we pay in taxes.
In a way. So perhaps I should clairfy.
Would you rather:
A - pay lower taxes but have most of the revenues spent on projects you consider wasteful, with little going to useful projects.
B - pay higher taxes but have most of the revenues spent on projects you consider useful and are well managed with proper oversight?
Its hard to pick either A or B but I guess I'd pick A on the assumption that if we reduced the tax rate to 0% then it would eliminate all waste and fraud.
But the situation we actually have today is high taxes
and waste, for example;
A war that we didn't need to be in.
Bridge to nowhere.
Social benefits for illegal immigrants.
$18 billion in pork projects.
Medicare/medicaid fraud - being billed for wheelchairs that the allegded recipient never ordered or received, among other things.
