Why would Americans want a bigger Government? Why would they want to centralize power?

This is how you get Tyranny. This is what the founding fathers tried to prevent from happening.

This concept is so easy to understand and yet people think that Government will be the solution to the problems we face in the world.

We don't need more Government, we need better people. The private sector could come up with better solutions for healthcare, poverty, etc.

With more Government comes higher taxes. But here is the kicker, the extra taxes does not go to pay for what they are taxing you for. Most of it is wasted . We can see examples of this all over the country and over many administrations both Republican and Democrat.

All you have to do is look at the roads in any major city. Every year they add new road taxes and yet the roads are still terrible. San Francisco has some of the worst roads in the country and yet is one of the highest taxed cities.

Let's talk about solving poverty and helping the poor in foreign nations. I guarantee that all the private charitable organizations combined do a much better job of improving the lives of the impoverished globally than what our Government aid to those countries does.

Most of the foreign Aid we give other countries is stolen from the people. Look at Puerto Rico and the disaster relief scandals. Same in Central America. There are many examples of this.

More Government is not the answer !

Less Government is the answer. Empowering people and letting them keep more of their money.

Create an environment that produces more successful Americans. Incentivize generosity, help produce more charitable organizations.
