The Failure of Major Federal Programs: Responsibility and Stewardship - Part 1

Consider all the programs that are causing federal spending and debt problems:
1. Social Security
2. Medicare
3. Medicaid
4. The New National Health Care

To that add some extraordinarily expensive programs that are ineffective or rife with fraud or both:
5. Education
6. Food Stamps
7. Economic Recovery Programs

There is UNIVERSAL AGREEMENT that the cost of these programs is sucking the life out of our economy. There are several questions we should be asking about them. We should know who created them and why as well as who mismanaged them and how they did that. How can we expect to fix them properly without understanding the answers to these questions? One thing must be clear to rational Americans: we CANNOT just keep throwing money at them blindly people!!! That’s just stupid!

(Parts 2 and 3 will follow soon.)
