Oct 10, 2006 -- Government getting bigger and bigger

Who is in favor of our government getting larger? Probably not you, right? Everyone talks about reducing government involvement and government spending. But a recent report from a professor at NYU shows that the number of people who are working for the government is at an all time high. The number of people who are getting paid with your tax dollars – either directly or indirectly – is just under 15 million. That’s about one out of every 20 employees. Four years ago it was 12 million. And we all know that federal spending has gone up over the years. Our government is huge! If we’re going to start controlling our spending, we need less of a sugar daddy in Washington. The only way we’re going to get this under control is with tight limits on spending. What politician is actually willing to do that? Colorado has done something about spending with its TABOR law. We need the equivalent of a TABOR at a national level. Clark would like to see someone run for office on that platform.
