Can the government help more by reducing taxes & less regulation, or by raising taxes & spending more wisely?

Yes. Absolutely. Fed.

Gov. Employs 4.3 million employees, NOT COUNTING the military. Start by eliminatng entirely the Dept.

Of Education, Dept. Of Energy, Dept. Of Housing & Urban Development, Dept.

Of Labor, and Dept. Of Interior. The FDA and EPA should go too.

We don't need any of these. Cut every Dept. 50% immediately.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
