One of the best articles about the federal "budget"...

...I've read in a long time.

From the article:

The government has no resources. Everything it spends was created by private individuals and still belongs to taxpayers. All government can do is take from the industrious, the inventive, the hard-working and the frugal to dispense on the inefficient, the lazy, or the irresponsible. Government spending bites the very hand that feeds it.

And these resources no longer exist. We're now over $12 trillion in debt. Including future unfunded liabilities and those Washington assumed as a result of assorted bailouts and other mischief, the average family owes $471K and counting courtesy of government. The resources are gone.

Democrats wasted them on silly, self-defeating welfare programs and Republicans wasted them on silly, self-defeating foreign policies. Sometimes in fits of bipartisanship, they combined to waste them on even greater concepts.

Government has no remaining resources, but to our peril it does have a printing press.

Stop all the spending. Bring our troops home, end the unnecessary entitlement programs and cut taxes then pay off the debt. if there is anything to be done it is to open the gates for all energy options. coal, oil, gas, windmills, sun all of it. This would put plenty of people to work and make us energy independent and we will begin producing again.

The government owns half the land west of the Mississippi. This is not a resource?
