It seems like every day I read about how government wastes money so I thought I would record them. Since I began this blog, I have been stunned by the amount of waste, fraud, and mismanagement I have found. I recognize that some government is necessary for any society to exist but without the "profit incentive" that we have in private enterprise, government continues to grow like a cancer and along with it the potential for abuse. If you ever needed a reason to limit government, just read some of the following posts.

Obamacare strikes again

Interesting Chicago Tribune article on Obamacare. Some excerpts:
  • If a medical device helps folks, the tax on every sale just went up 2.3 percent.
  • ... the surest way to make something scarcer is to tax it.
  • The payroll tax just went up by 2 percent for every American who draws a paycheck.
  • Since so much of Obamacare's small print has yet to be revealed, or even written, there's no telling how many more taxes, regulations and penalties are still in the works. Oh, joy. Nancy Pelosi did say we'd have to pass Obamacare before finding out what all is in it, and, boy, are we. Tax after tax after tax.
