Not sure I agree. Interest on our national debt is increasing (I believe it's third largest spending category, depending on how you break it down) and is expected to surpass defense spending this year.

The rest I totally agree with.

Due to tax cuts, not really do to science expenditures.

  • Totally agree. My point is mainly that if we did destroy the national debt (as promised by this administration), we'd be able to spend significantly more on whatever we liked. We don't seem to be doing that, however.

    • Last time this admin was around, they inflated the money supply by creating 20% more money than had ever been made. They had zero intention of cutting debt, they just want to use debt to trap everyone else. They lied to you and there is historical evidence that should have made you think twice before supporting them.
