As the Obama administration has proven, spending more money on illegal gun-running to Mexican drug cartels, more spying and secret police, illegal wiretaps, and shipping arms to Al Qaida, does not benefit the citizens at all.

The rich need to keep their money. They earned it, mostly, by hiring people and providing goods and services to the citizens far more efficiently than the government has done. What needs to be done is to lower government revenues by $12 trillion, not raise them, and prevent Congress from borrowing money using the voter’s credit. When they get free money, they waste it.
