Could we stop already?

There was an article out Tuesday that Congress is sending on a bill to expand the AmeriCorps Program.

Okay, I'm a liberal and I believe we need government to solve some solutions--like bank regulation, for a great, long overdue example--but could we STOP expanding government?

PLEASE?

Doesn't anyone in Washington know we have a debt?

A BIG debt?

A REALLY HUGE debt? And deficit?

We need government, for sure, to create and pave streets and have water distribution and sewage and good schools (no connection between those last 2, by the way) and all kinds of things but we don't need an endless expansion of government.

Let's stop. Let's at least slow down. Let's do what we do right and stop making this mess we call government bigger.
