no one is saying government spending should be not kept to a minimum, john.
some of us would like to see it reduced in areas that subsidize the wealthy, or
support pre-emptive invasion of sovereign nations that have not attacked us,
but we want their oil, etc. i do believe we need to streamline the
bureaucracy, curb government waste in entitlement programs and eliminate fraud
, etc.
