Helping the less Fortunate… Washington helps itself

Ever wonder why we have such a large Federal Bureaucracy? I was thinking about how Gov’t tries to help the less fortunate. It has failed miserably in spite of all the spending. It makes no sense to me that we should send “our tax dollars” to a Federal Gov’t that builds a huge bureaucracy to administer “our money” and then return “our money” to Georgia to help the poor. It makes no sense. Creates a lot of Federal Jobs, assuages the guilt of the Washington “do gooders” and then we have to “re” distribute the money in Georgia, which requires yet another bureaucracy, with even more State employees. Why not cut out the unnecessary Washington money grab? How much money do we have left after taxes? Less and less with each passing day.
