Makes no sense to me how it got so out of control so fast and for all the program cutting and political indignation on either side, no attempt is being made to reduce it.
And the idea that it doesn't matter as long as big business survives, the presses keep printing a worth less Dollar so the 'boomers can live longer and die leaving nothing of value to gen. x and beyond....
