If we were getting good value for our dollar I would agree that we are spending too much. Even though we spend the most out of any country on things like medical care and our military, we aren't getting a good return on investment. Large corporate interests have greased enough government wheels to keep the big payouts rolling their way. If you want to decrease spending, fine lets start by lowering the costs of medical care and medicines, and start looking at getting better value out of our military spending.
