Steve Deace on Gab: 'Biggest federal budget expenditures as of 2022: Entitlements (Medicare, Medicaid, Obamacare, Social Security): 46% Income security (food stamps, welfare, etc.): 18% National Defense: 12% Discretionary Spending: 10% Interest: 8% That accounts for 94% of all the money the Feds spent in 2022. Cutting all foreign aid, ceasing earmarks, and eliminating "waste, fraud, and abuse" are popular talking points which I agree with. But even if done completely and perfectly wouldn't put a dent in the deficit. In other words, it's the stuff we want that drives deficits. We aren't victims. This is a reflection of who we are as a people, just as the people in office are as well.'
