For over 50 years, the U.S. government has massively expanded spending on education, healthcare, and welfare—promising to improve American lives. But has this surge in government funding actually made Americans smarter, healthier, or more prosperous? In this PragerU 5-Minute Video, Stanford finance professor and Hoover Institution Senior Fellow Joshua Rauh breaks down why more government spending often leads to inefficiency, waste, and dependency. Discover the unintended consequences of big government and why real solutions come from freedom, accountability, and market-driven reform.
