Entitlements

The measure of success for our social safety net programs should be that fewer and fewer Americans must rely on them, not more and more.

Every additional American who must rely on a government program is further proof our economic and fiscal policies are failing, and creates an additional burden on the hardworking taxpayers who must foot the bill.

We must put in place the correct fiscal, tax and economic policies to reverse these trends, lest we continue on the slippery slope to economic dependence on a “nanny state” with astronomical and unsustainable levels of spending.
