GW has sure done a "good job."

Either he wants to make sure he is not made the fall guy, or he wants a promotion. Think about it - if you are motivated and talented, will you join Washington?
It is not the doing that is difficult, but the knowing
It's the illiquidity, stupid !

I want return OF my money more than return ON my money
Posted 07 March 2007 - 06:01 PM
The president can not spend a single dime on his own.
The president can only propose a budget.
In the US Constitution, the sole authority to spend is delegated
to the congress.
So, now we have an accumulated national debt of 9 Trillion.
And that will be paid by FUTURE taxpayers.
But the news is actually worse than that. We have UNFUNDED
obligations due to promised entitlements (Social Security,
Medicare etc) to CURRENT wage earners of $40 Trillion. And
that account keeps growing by each passing day.
The number I recall is every person in the US owes $175,000
in unfunded liabilities.
