The budget passed and we will suffer

What we have just witnessed is the party that championed budget restraints and spending cuts for years, allowed the democrats to get everything they wanted in spending.  So, while our military will get stronger with an increase in funding, our deficit will increase by another one Trillion dollars.  So, with a congress and the White House under republican control, we are witnessing democratic ideology take control and spend, spend and spend some more.  Pork barrel is back and we the taxpayer will eventually pay the price.  Or better, our children and their children will suffer because we did not make the tough choices by not only making drastic cuts in spending and eliminating most of the 430 plus government agencies that many of us have no idea even exist. 

Many of the representatives in the House and Senate are more concerned with keeping their seat then actually saving our country from bankruptcy.  No one on this planet can every out BS congress when it comes to what they do and the absurd reasons why they did it.  We need to replace these spending representatives with conservatives who actually believe in our country and care about reducing our deficit.  As individuals, we cannot live with deficit spending and neither can companies and especially a government.  However, I have not heard of any democrat that is willing to make the tough cuts needed and there are not enough conservative republicans in congress to address this problem.  The swamp has won again.  When will we wake up and realize we are spending ourselves into oblivion. 

Whether you want to hear this or not, we must address the so called “entitlements” that are eating between 60 to 70% of our budget.  When we have people sitting home living on the government dole, this must be stopped.  We became the country we are through our citizens rolling up our sleeves and putting in the long hours and working hard to achieve success.  Success is not made by sitting home collecting a check when one is young enough and physically able to work.  Instead, when one gets the freebees, one does not want to surrender this freebee and actually work for the same thing.  But again, as I have said repeatedly, congress is more interested in staying in congress over saving our country.  After all, they do get a nice pension that many of us can only dream about.  So, they will live the good life no matter which direction this country goes as they tell us one BS story after another.
