Oh the grand irony of government!!
President Obama revealed his budget... a massive 3.4 trillion dollar budget. Meanwhile, because he made 19 billion in cuts he found himself defending himself with statements that are shocking.. and almost laughable:
"We can no longer afford to spend as if deficits don't matter and waste is not our problem," he said. "We can no longer afford to leave the hard choices for the next budget, the next administration -- or the next generation."
Ironic, yes? A president who is spending at record levels with record levels of debt says that we can NO LONGER afford to spend as if deficits don't matter???? President Obama, YOU are the one who is spending as though it doesn't matter. And.... I urge you.. follow your advice... make the hard choices.. cut the budget.. and don't pass on YOUR mistakes to the next generation. Please.
Just for those of you whose eyes glaze over with such large numbers.. this year's budget spends over $11,000 for each man, woman, and child in this nation. That is more than my family earns in a year. That is certainly more than we can afford to pay in taxes. And I don't know about you... but I do NOT get $11,000 worth of stuff from our government, do you????
