"This is what we have in our budget. This is what we have to spend. If we do not have it we have to do without." We all hear the debates. The current mantra or certainly the often repeated mantra is " If people are expected to live within their means, so must our governments."
So, What would that look like? What would our nation look like if we have to live within the means that we collect through taxes? Would we have to accept poorer quality roads? Would our educational system become less effective? Would the ability of our military to protect us be compromised? Would our streets be less safe due to a lesser ability to provide for our police and fire departments?
Would those who struggle, for what ever reasons, to provide for themselves and receive tax-payer funded support be expected to become more independent? If they are not able to do so, Will the quality of their lives collapse"
What would the US look like today if we had to live strictly within our means as National Policy?
