Everywhere we look we see where our government has an influence and impact to our lives. Where do we draw the line and say our government is large enough and already has enough control over our lives? These are valid questions and it is okay to have such concerns. Government has a role which is necessary for society to function, to ensure workplaces are safe, children get quality education, elderly people get the care they need, and our environment isn't contaminated with pollutants.
I hear people say they don't need the government making decisions for them. My question to them is what decisions? Most who make these comments at this time are conservatives who completely disagree with the Obama administration, and will support nothing he or his administration does.
I agree that our government is large with many different branches but I don't know where cuts could be made without consequence. I've visited countries where there was little government infrastructure and thus the people suffer on a daily basis. Yet on the flip side, I do believe we should hold our government accountable, and demand accountability for spending and waste.
yes sir.
