There is No Federal Deficit

To review the actions of most politicians, especially democrats, one would think there is not a deficit.  The dems still want to increase taxes for those that pay most of the taxes and the republicans do not focus sufficiently on creating new jobs or eliminating or significantly reducing the social costs that provide no incentive to work but rather provide an incentive to grow a population that increasingly depends on the federal government for earnings without working.  $560 Billion Dollars paid for medicaid and chip (benefits for the unworking) and $496 Billion paid for families facing a hardship (low income housing, food stamps, housing assistance, heating assistance etc.) 1.  That's a total of 1 trillion, 56 billion dollars spent to continue the incentive not to work.  Do you think this money would be wiser spent to provide jobs for those currently on the breast of Uncle Sam?  The dems might lose votes if they did this as this socialistic  public assistance is no more than payment for a vote.  Since the republicans don't seem to tackle this bull by the horns,  they are no better than the Dems.  What the working people of America need to do is complain and write there representatives and advise them of the foregoing.  Only with a reduction of these social costs can all American's have the pride that comes from supporting a family and avoid the economic woes of Greece, Italy and France.

Politicians and Entitlements

Last week I read that there is a joint effort among Republicans and Democrats to reduce the deficit by 4 trillion dollars.  Sounds good-right.  Not they way they intend on accomplishing it.  The new plan would increase tases and reduce or adversely impact medicare, medicaid and social security.  Of course, these are true entitlements as those receiving medicare and social security worked their way (for the most part) into acquiring these benefits.  On the other hand, neither party desires to take the bulls by the horns and eliminate certain unnecessary welfare programs such as Section 8 housing, medicaid, free cell phones and payment to pump out children that will continue in the foot steps of their parents.  Without these degrading social benefits people will have to work to have children and have a better life like our grandparents and parents.  Who knows, they may actually have to contribute to society by paying taxes and taking pride in their accomplishments and not the governments.  If these socialist morons don't change their ways, not only will our businesses move out of the country but its citizens will denounce their US citizenship and move elsewhere.  Who will then pay the bill?
