Here’s a cause every mother can rally around…
Mothers Against Debt are a group of concerned mothers who are fed up with reckless government spending and massive national debt
www.MothersAgainstDebt.com The debt we are leaving our children is fiscal child abuse. Since we made this video, debt per citizen has risen more than $1700 to $41,869 according to the US Debt Clock. To find out more about what we are doing to our children and how to stop it, visit MothersAgainstDebt.com. “Government, we’ve got our eye on you!”
Here’s more from the M.A.D. website:
A recent Rasmussen poll suggests that American parents understand that when government takes more from them, parents have less to spend caring for their children. Consider these findings regarding taxes, debt and spending:
* 66 percent of Americans believe the country is overtaxed.
* 69 percent of Americans do not want their taxes raised to pay off the national debt.
* 83 percent of Americans believe the budget spending deficit is due to elected officials’ unwillingness to cut spending rather than a reluctance to raise taxes.In Colorado parents enjoy a fragile line of defense between their pocketbooks and government. Known as the Taxpayer’s Bill of Rights (TABOR), it keeps government from growing faster than the private sector. TABOR allows government to grow by the sum of rate of inflation plus population, and lawmakers must ask Colorado voters for approval to raise taxes. The beauty of TABOR is that it puts Colorado voters in charge. They get to decide how much government they want and how much they are willing to pay for it.

Do “debt per child” it would be a higher number.

It is child abuse. On a societal level. This cannot go on.
DocScience commented:
People don’t realize that our children will not be buying cars like we did, will not be buying houses like we did, will not be eating meat, and will simply be poorer because of the income that will be stolen from them to pay for this insane borrowing and transfer of wealth to public employees and the unproductive clients of the nanny state.
The Democrats are creating post-prosperity America and the liberals are applauding insanely.

Would everyone who believes that the Democrats currently in Washington, along with too many Republicans, actually care about this, please raise your hand?
Robert commented:
Unfunded commitments in Social Security and
the various Medicares are 4 times again as much,
for a total of 53 Trillion.
When is somebody going to say NO?

Completely out of control.
For far too many Americans, long-term planning only extends about 15 minutes into the future.

Insufficiently Sensitive commented:
Washington has passed a number of citizen initiatives limiting growth of government spending. The legislature habitually declares an ‘emergency’, and nullifies those laws.
Said legislature owns an arrogant entitlement mentality, and refuses to cut expenditures to match resources. As if no limit to spending is allowed to exist. Yet the voters re-elect them.
Very liberal with other people’s money.

Libs don’t care about kids. They want to abort them.
