IntroductionI am educated and Serious about Government Spending and Fiscal Reform in the USA. We dont control federal programs, government contracting, cost benefit analysis, public private partnerships. We dont control the federal budget and most of us can not analyze financial schemes to see who everyone ends up paying through higher bills, higher taxes, higher fees, telecommunications line items on our bills. Politics is about winning budget increases. Individual government programs compete to increase and keep their budgets every year with individuals seeking to build empires. It makes me worry about the future of social programs (social security, Medicare, Medicaid, K-12 education, highways (free travel) parks (free access), bridges, beach, river & lake access (free to the public), outdoor hiking, fishing & hunting (free access).
