America finally knows what President Obama meant when he said he
intended to “fundamentally transform America.” He aimed to make this
country unrecognizable to its Founding Fathers, and he’s done just that.
Obama
has reversed the role of the federal government – instead of looking
like the world’s hegemonic superpower, we look more like the world’s
most innovative social welfare state to be envied by all of Western
Europe.
This year defense spending will sink to its lowest levels
in our nation’s history; meanwhile, entitlement spending will reach new
highs.
This is part of an astounding overall trend in our
federal government’s spending habits. The Heritage Foundation
reports,“Defense spending has declined significantly over time, even
when the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan are included, as spending on the
three major entitlements—Social Security, Medicare, and Medicaid—has
more than tripled.”
In 2012 alone, Heritage reveals an immense
gap between defense and entitlement spending—defense comprised 19% of
total outlays, while entitlements reached a gargantuan 62% of federal
spending.
This is a complete perversion of what the Founding Fathers intended. All caused by a usurper!
