The rate at which the Federal government is spending money is simply unsustainable. We need a balanced budget amendment.

This latest "emergency" Covid-19 bill is $1.9 trillion, much of which will not be distributed until 2028. We also know that less than 10% of the bill actually went directly to Covid-19.

True. DC is so messed up with the pork barrel spending.

We just got a relief bill that 10% (or less) actually goes to relief.

Congress does horse trading where the Congress all get something and the taxpayer gets left holding the baby.
