What do you think is the federal government's most expensive program?
The military?
Social Security?
Nope.
The most expensive single program is paying the interest on the debt that Republicans and Democrats in Washington DC have run up in your name.
That doesn't even include paying back the principle.
That's just the interest.
Thanks to decades of debt spending, which every Congress in our lifetimes has passed, and every President in our lifetimes has signed, it will cost nearly a trillion dollars this year just to pay the interest on the debts they've run up.
That's an average of $6000 being taken out of each American taxpayer's pocket, to pay back interest on the $32 trillion (and growing) national debt.
To put that in perspective, when I was born in 1982, the entire federal budget wasn't even $1 trillion.
Imagine how much higher the interest will be when the kids being born now are in their 40s.
Our government is saddling people who haven't even been been born yet with 6 figure debts.
And today, we suffer the inflation that's caused by all the money being printed to finance these debts.
This is why the cost of living continues to skyrocket out of control.
And why?
So politicians and their billionaire corporate sponsors can live the good life on your dime, while you suffer under the consequences of their policies.
Trump and Biden have both proven that all they plan to do is run up even more debt, and saddle us with more even more interest and inflation from it.
This must end, and the two-headed uniparty monster won't end it.
It's time for us to slay that monster.
An interesting note:
In 2020-2021 (no fans, and not counting DePaul):
Big East teams were 86-35 at home .710 winning percentage
This year: Big East teams (not counting Georgetown, with fans) are:
112-26 at home. .811 winning percentage
Fans matter. Student sections matter.
HALF — Butler 35, Xavier 21
The Bulldogs played their best 20 minutes of the entire season.
The Musketeers played their worst.
A potentially stunning scenario playing out at Hinkle Fieldhouse, and what could be a game-changer of a night in the Big East regular season race.

@Whitman24 I think you've nailed it here with the bread, egg style, and meat. Have you experimented with a Colby jack or pepper jack cheese? And my favorite condiments are a spicy tomato jam and arugula
Potential million dollar idea:
An American Barbecue restaurant that mimics the style of a Brazilian steakhouse...
The "salad bar" has all the classic Barbecue sides and desserts. A whole hog is wheeled around for slicing/tearing cuts off.
2nd year in a row the Big10 has had the most bids to March Madness...
&
2nd year in a row without a Big10 program represented in the Final Four..
Does the committee put too much weight on "strength of schedule"?
Should there be a cap for conference bids?
