Root of all evil: Did you know that the federal government takes and spends the equivalent of $52,000 per household each year?

• “The government can’t spend one dollar on anything without first taking that dollar from another American,” write Paul Mullen, senior marketing associate, and Richard Stern, director of the Grover M.
