Communication
Editor
Tryon Bulletin
Tryon, N. C.
Dear Sir:
Federal waste of taxpayers’
money has become so awesome
that the latest instance — $700
million in overpayments by the
Social Security Administration —
has passed almost without
comment. The General Account
ing Office puts Federal waste at
the unbelievable sum of more
than $15 billion a year.
The key question is whether
Americans can do anything about
this, or whether we’re already
beyond a point of recall. I believe
we can. One bold step could take
us back to sound, prudent
government. That step is repeal
of the 16th Amendment — the
notorious amendment which
established the Federal Income
Tax. The Washington wastrels
will never act on their own. We
must deny them the money.
Sincerely.
John J. Moran
