The $22 trillion national debt is only half of the problem. When we take into account unfunded liabilities, our nation's financial situation looks even worse.
And who will pay for the impending collapse of these programs? Young people.
As Rep. Dan Crenshaw explains in a recent appearance on The Ben Shapiro Show, the federal government will be forced to raise taxes on younger Americans to keep entitlements afloat.
The feds waste billions of taxpayer dollars every year in fraud and abuse, but while some members of Congress understand the danger of this situation, the majority aren't willing to make the tough spending decisions necessary to stave off the tax hikes Rep. Crenshaw predicts.
That's why we must call an Article V Convention of States. A Convention of States can propose constitutional amendments that will force members of Congress to stop kicking the can down the road. These amendments can mandate a balanced budget, cap spending, and limit taxation.
We can't trust Congress to save the financial futures of our children and grandchildren. It's time for the states to act with an Article V Convention of States.
