Federal Government Spending is hitting an all time high and, even though they aren’t hitting the taxpayers directly, we will feel the effect. All of the increased spending is from money the feds are borrowing, thus increasing the National Debt.

Our representatives in Washington D.C. think they can get away with this because the American People don’t follow all of their actions that closely. Most people see the members of the Republican Party as Conservatives and forget that the Conservative Movement is only a portion of the party.

People blame the war in Iraq and all of the media hype for the fall of the Republican Party in the 2006 elections. The Democrats in New Hampshire only rode the wave of discontent to take over our state legislature. What we need is more spending accountability for our elected FEDERAL and STATE Representatives. All of their votes on spending should be recorded and reported so we all know who they are representing.

The video below is a CNN report about the current spending issue and how accountability can be established.

The important thing to remember is that conservative principals require a reduction in spending to off-set any reductions in the tax rates we pay. This holds true for federal, state, county and municipal spending and taxation.

This November we will be facing some important choices and it is important that we not just elect Republicans to control taxes but that we elect Conservatives to control spending.

We become like zombies when deciding who to cast our vote for elected officials. We only pay attention to what the main stream media says and do not become informed from other sources. Please do your research and vote for the people who will fight to protect our wallets.
