60% of Federal Spending goes to Departments Not Authorized by the Constitution

AOL: We often talk about the legal and societal impact of our ignorance of the Constitution, but what about the monetary costs? We all complain about how much we pay in taxes, but have you taken the time to consider where all of that money is being spent? Let’s take some time to look at the spending authority of federal agencies in 2023 and see what we can learn, and how much of our money is being illegally spent.

I don’t know anyone who enjoys creating a budget. It’s boring, tedious, and generally frustrating. However, as a much younger man, I learned the importance of knowing where the money was coming from and where it was going. So while it may not be fun, budgeting is an important part of fiscal responsibility. Which perhaps explains why the federal government is so bad at it.

The other problem I see with understanding federal spending is the fact that most people don’t deal with large numbers very well. Telling someone a car costs $50,000 is one thing. Telling them it will cost $1,000 a month, and they seem to do a better job deciding if they can afford it or not.

With these two limitations in mind, I want to take a look at the 2023 federal budget and see if we can’t make some sense of what our employees are doing with our money. Before we discuss the dollars, though, I need to make some sense of government spending. more

  6. Great advice, but I cannot teach the Communist children IN MY OWN FAMILY, who have written off OLD Auntie Zonga because their saviors, omamalala, let’s go brandon, npr, and all the social media they consume branded me an enemy of the state. They say they believe I am a radical dangerous person. Reading the Constitution is not going to fix this.

  10. Auntie Zonga,don’t waste any more time on the willfully blind ones. Use your energy for more worthwhile endevors. Concentrate on just taking care of business. If your differences with the communist children ae important enough, the truth will be known in due time.

    Sorta like the recent awakening of some from the masses about the results from the covid jab. The truth will be known in due time.

    Post this where you can see it every day:
    No one is coming to save you.
    Everything is your responsibility.
    Always be working.

  11. No one cares about the Constitution.

    On the other hand, there is some important news today:

    “𝐁𝐫𝐢𝐚𝐧 𝐒𝐭𝐞𝐥𝐭𝐞𝐫 𝐒𝐚𝐲𝐬 𝐓𝐚𝐲𝐥𝐨𝐫 𝐒𝐰𝐢𝐟𝐭 𝐒𝐨𝐧𝐠 ‘𝐒𝐭𝐮𝐩𝐢𝐝 𝐋𝐢𝐭𝐭𝐥𝐞 𝐏𝐨𝐭𝐚𝐭𝐨 𝐌𝐚𝐧’ 𝐈𝐬 𝐍𝐨𝐭 𝐀𝐛𝐨𝐮𝐭 𝐇𝐢𝐦”

  15. And from the Marines “Chesty” Puller and General Curtis Lemay from the Air Force, Admiral Nimitz from the Navy. All the democraps have are traitors and turncoats and jackasses like General George McClellan from the Civil War down to the current worthless Generals and Admirals in the Navy running the DOD now who are more concerned about diversity and equity than they are in actually fighting to save this country from our enemies, primarily the Chinks, Russians, the mad Mullahs in Iran and the little dictator in N. Korea.

    “Just try and eliminate those departments and see how far you get!
    Warren Harding did it 100 years ago. Then the democommies created all kinds of fake publicity to make him look evil. Sound familiar?
    Luckily, his VP Calvin Coolidge wasn’t a “pence” and continued his policies which created the “Roaring Twenties”.
