For instance: They failed to prevent one of the largest attacks ever on American soil, and then we give them more power to provide for our “security“? such as letting them spy on citizens and have invasive searches.
They fail to balance the budget, and then the American people agree with letting them spend even more on top of what they spent last year.
Why do we give the feds more power when they have proven that they cannot handle it?
Whenever The Government Fails, Why Do We Give Them More Power?

We didn’t give them the power to spy on us without a warrant. (I don’t recall being asked to vote on the PATRIOT Act.) And many Americans don’t agree with letting them spend more, but they do it anyway. It’s human nature: People who have power want to keep and expand that power. The checks and balances in our system limit it to some extent, but people find ways around them.
Our government failed to stop the mortgage crisis, it failed at the attempted correction to the meltdown, it has failed with our SS retirement program, it has failed with our healthcare, and energy policy, and it failed to stop 9/11 with tons of warnings, the Post Office is almost bankrupt, public education is failing oujr students with high drop-out and low test scores. So we would be better off with a shutdown government.
Agreed, OP.
“Do you even know what that would do to our economy?”
And when ppl refuse to lend us money because our debt is so large we can’t pay it back, then what. We can get spending under control now over time with the luxury of deciding how to do it with the least amount of harm, or we can wait till we are forced to cut trillions immediately and all at once.
Sorry cant hide behind your block in here. Although I will say its a good choice to block me because you will never beat me in any debate with the stupid ideas you back and given your limited intellect.
You have a point on the first one.
On the budget question, what is your solution? For government to just stop spending? Do you even know what that would do to our economy?
I think it’s mostly just out of laziness.
It’s easier to blindly trust politicians than to fix our own problems.
