Have these people gone mad?

It isn't very nice to say, I know.  The question should be how can we pay for stuff, not how much can we spend.  Our representatives in Congress want to spend first and ask questions later.  But where's the money coming from?  Higher taxes?  Taxes were cut very recently.  Even if taxes were raised, how does that help?

Congress needs to implement a growth plan.  The only growth they are interested in is growing the budget.  Or growing the tax base.  They should be looking for ways to economize.  Evidently, this is not how things work in Washington.

If the newly elected representatives can't slow down this runaway freight train,  Zimbabwe is our destination indeed.
