Science, tech, infrastructure never caused the debt. You could look back the past 30 years and find that this just isn't the driver.
It has stayed pretty much the same the last 30 years.
IT IS WELFARE, Free shit give aways and wars.
Sequesters really is anti-science
You see something else is driving the debt. Only a idiot would support slashing science and tech funding....
If we can't even invest into science, tech and infrastructure. Then we won't even remain a first world nation. We probably spend the 50 billion per year on science within 3-4 months at war in a shit hole. We probably spend that in a month on welfare for lazy people...We probably spend that 14 times over on defense.
What is good for our children and our nation seems to be the enemy of the right.
