[QUOTE="59 Dano, post: 942618, member: 23516"] We're definitely over taxed at the federal level. There's so much that could be eliminated from the federal budget and replaced with nothing that the public would never miss that it would make your head spin. Multiply that much money by a dozen and you have things that benefit only a handful of people. My criteria for rational federal spending is pretty simple: Is it absolutely vital that the federal government administer/operate this department/program/whatever? Will the lack of federal funding/running of this program be catastrophic because neither the private sector or state and local governments can do the same thing? And my favorite, is it a legitimate function of government to do this? I don't get worked up over the spending anymore, though. It has been increasing for as long as I've been alive and it will continue to do so no matter what. [/QUOTE]
