I never said any of that.

But spending beyond our means is what passes along an obligation to PAY to our children.

If we have to spend more than what we have just to maintain an 'acceptable' level, then what choice do our children have when 10% of their revenue is already gone? Who's generation is left holding the bag when there's just no more borrowing to be done? See: Greece.
