Agreed. There are expenses that are required, and those that benefit all. There are expenses that provide healthy benefits and/or returns. Then there are expenses that are just wasteful, greedy or slothful. I think it's important to separate the wheat from the chaff when determining what we spend our money on, or I suppose I should say what we take on as debt.

And I agree with you that the bad-actors are those with the deepest pockets. I agree with you on the idea that it's "corporate greed" doing the worst. But I think our government is a part of that equation, and that both sides of the aisle are equally responsible. They just each have a different set of loyalties, and different groups they're entangled with. I don't really like what I've seen for the past couple of decades, at least. It looks like it just keeps getting worse.
