Feds need to stop spending our money

Our $19 trillion national debt equates to a stack of $100 bills piled 10,000 miles high. Each year, we add another 250-mile-high stack of $100 bills to the debt pile.

Bernie Sander’s solution is to “tax the billionaires.” There are about 500 billionaires in the U.S. and they have a combined net worth of about $2 trillion. It we took every cent of the billionaire’s money it would only pay for about two years of the spending increases Bernie proposes and it would do nothing to reduce the debt.
