Cost of Government Expansion - Your Share!

You would have to be a mountain hermit to not be aware of what's happening in the US government.  The new caring legislative body wants to make sure that change includes a human response that trumps personal responsibility.  Caring is an important component of the American story.  No other nation on Earth has given as much to relieve the suffering of others - on a government and personal level.
