Debt Lessons

[digginfool]

Lesson # 1:

U.S. Tax revenue$2,170,000,000,000
Fed budget: $3,820,000,000,000
New debt: $ 1,650,000,000,000
National debt: $14,271,000,000,000
Recent budget cuts: $ 38,500,000,000

Let's now remove 8 zeros and pretend it's a household budget:

Annual family income: $21,700
Money the family spent: $38,200
New debt on the credit card: $16,500
Outstanding balance on the credit card: $142,710
Total budget cuts: $385

OK now Lesson# 2:

Here's another way to look at the Debt Ceiling:

Let's say, You come home from work and find there has been sewer backup in
your neighborhood....and your home has sewage all the way up to your
ceilings. What do you think you should do...

Raise the ceilings, or pump out the crap?


Your choice is coming Nov. 2012

Good luck with that, your choices for president are.............hmmm, a non christian a complete wack job or Stephen Colbert.  With this republican party pardoning murderers, killing medicare, destroying the environment, against healthcare, against any form of anything non republican, war hungry, borrow and spend hungry, full of hate, full of lies, full of S&*T, anti hispanic, anti black, anti any one non white, anti gay, anti any non christian religion (which is funny since your candidate falls here), anti women, anti freedoms, and anti brains.  I know there are many, many, many more things this republican party is against but now let's look at what they are for.

BIG BUSINESS AND BIG MONEY to line the republican parties pockets to push their anti everything agenda, the prehistoric backward thinking crawl on all fours agenda.

Bring on November.............can't wait!!!

It's funny how the very policies that are destroying America are pushed through by the Left while, all the while, blaming the Right.  The Left blames 'big business' for the woes of the Land but the reality is, without 'big business' there are no jobs, and thus, no tax revenue to fund the entitlements that are truly destroying America.  The blame and name game the Left plays amounts to nothing more than class warfare.  The Left empowers the unions to put more pressure on business, going on strike when they don't get their way.  The workers blame the owners for making a living off their backs without realizing if not for the owner, they would be sitting on their backsides.  The Left attacks those who can do claiming they are helping those who won't.  They take from those that have earned to give to those who won't.  They raise taxes on those who make profits to give to those who won't.  The one percent that the Left demonizes carries the weight of the economic world on their shoulders.  The Left will keep taxing, regulating, taking and demonizing those that can in the name of those that can't until, one day, the one percent will have had enough.  That's when the ninety-nine percent will learn who was zooming who.  As far as this November goes, I'm betting that so many slugs didn't get their free gas and mortgages paid for that Obama has pretty much lost his cult of personality; the slugs won't show at the poll.
