Trust is the cornerstone of our republic democracy.<\/p>\n

Whether it be the delicate social contract embodied in our Constitution<\/a> or the transactions that we engage in every day \u2013 trust is the fabric that ties it all together.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The debate over the relationship between government and the governed is not new. From the Old Testament to the age of Greek philosophy, from the New Testament to the Middle Ages \u2013 history is replete with tyrannical, obtrusive and inept examples of government at the expense of everyday citizens.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Tellingly, only 19% of Americans have faith that federal officials will do the right thing “most of the time,” while confidence in local and state officials<\/a> is substantially higher at 66% and 57%, respectively. Despite a recent uptick in voting participation, a recent study shows the U.S. ranks 31st out of 50 surveyed democracies.\u00a0<\/p>\n

BIDEN SIGNS DEBT CEILING BILL, AVOIDING GOVERNMENT DEFAULT<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

A big part of the disconnect between the government and the citizens it was created to serve stems from the lack of responsibility and sense of urgency in better stewardship over public funds<\/a>. The U.S. Government Accountability office recently concluded that more than $2.4 trillion \u2013 that\u2019s trillion with a “t” \u2013 worth of avoidable errors have been rendered over the last 20 years. <\/p>\n

The nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office recently noted that Congress has failed to reauthorize 1,118\u00a0appropriations that expired before the beginning of fiscal year 2022, while still spending $461\u00a0billion this year on programs that have expired authorizations. Sadly, $203 billion has been appropriated for programs that expired over a decade ago.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Additionally, our nation\u2019s complex and byzantine regulations sideline badly needed public and private projects across a wide swath of industries and functions of the economy. We know intuitively that America is falling further behind in critical infrastructure development to the point where we ask, “Could we even build the Hoover Dam again?”<\/p>\n

And the statistics belie the truth when it comes to unnecessary delays to key projects, whether it be in transportation or in the energy sector. An example that underscores the point is that a recent\u00a0analysis\u00a0showed that Dodd-Frank, a financial services law, accounted for nearly 30,000 new regulatory restrictions requiring compliance from business \u2013 more than all other laws passed during the Obama administration combined. Even one of the authors later\u00a0admitted\u00a0that “no one will know until this is actually in place how it works.”<\/p>\n

Finally, as our nation\u2019s leaders deliberate in the coming weeks over how to reconcile our profligate spending, more Americans lack faith that Congress and the president<\/a> can rein in runaway spending to support a bloated federal bureaucracy far in excess of the nation\u2019s needs.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Credit rating agencies agree with Americans in recent downgrades of the credit worthiness of our U.S. government\u2019s ability to reduce annual deficits and contain overall debt growth. A recent survey indicates that over eight in 10 Americans believe that both Congress and the president<\/a> should prioritize this unsustainable liability we are imposing on future generations of citizens.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The undeniable truth is that close to half of all of our spending is related to Social Security<\/a>, Medicare and Medicaid. Without a substantive discussion on reforming these programs, we won\u2019t ever get close to the goal of reining in escalating costs of maintaining government \u2013 namely the interest payments on servicing debt, which is projected to exceed national defense spending by 2028.<\/p>\n

The question we citizens have to ask ourselves is whether our very own government is getting in the way of our prosperity?<\/p>\n

We must remind our fellow Americans of our unassailable rights to scrutinize, demand and expect efficient and effective government. We need more courage from candidates and elected officials to fearlessly champion new approaches to reduce the size and scope of government and reform bureaucracies that make America less competitive.\u00a0<\/p>\n

As citizens, we have a responsibility to reject the notion that government should be left untouched and somehow expect positive outcomes.\u00a0<\/p>\n

If we are serious about our love for our nation, we must be serious about making sure that those charged with overseeing its fiscal affairs do the right things. Government of the people, by the people, for the people can only happen with the input and oversight of us all.<\/p>\n
