When a person buys US Government savings bond, he or she is
doing so under the powers given to congress to borrow money. By buying a government
bond, the person is actually lending money to the government. The government of
US already has the power to levy taxes, regulate business without the need for
any bonds. So it is a fact that buying a bond will never increase the power of
the government. The people are lending
money to the government as an entity.
