National debt must be lowered
The national debt is up to over $19 trillion. It’s out of control and needs a course correction.
Future generations will be denied the success our American experience has always promised and been able to provide the opportunity to enjoy if our government doesn’t change its budget policies soon.
Politicians need to get it together. I am thankful that Congressman Vern Buchanan has been sounding the alarm about the damage the debt will do to future generations. I applaud his hard work and wish him success.
Frankly, Washington really just needs to stop spending so much money.
