Federal spending in 2012 reached $29,691 for every household, with a deficit of $10,855 per household, and a total debt level of $136,690 per household; and the median household income in the United States is just above $40,000 per year. Do you really believe you're getting good value from this spending, and are you willing to spend an additional $10,855 per year to preserve these government programs? If you don't think it is worthwhile, why should someone else pay for it?
