Hello:
Our books are cooked like Enron's books were cooked.
The debt is closer to 48 trillion! Have to count Social Security and stuff like that in there.
Can't blame Bush alone. Though a tax cut and 2 wars didn't help matters any.
Many administrations over the past century have been tweaking the warning lights and gauges that should be blinking red on our instrument panel. LBJ took proceeds from Social Security and listed them as income and when we spent that money it doesn't get listed on the debt column. Nixon took gas and food out of inflation - hmmm don't you wish you could do that?
If inflation was figured correctly we'd owe our folks 70-80% bigger checks each month!
GDP, Inflation also are bogus. GDP is 40% less than what it is. Not good!
Our jet called the economy is out of gas, its engines are cooked and inside the cockpit the pilots think all is good. Well that will work until it crashes.
Jefferson said If a nation expects to be ignorant and free, in a civilization, it expects what never was and what never will be.
- Thomas Jefferson
"If the American people ever allow private banks to control the issue of their currency, first by inflation, then by deflation, the banks and corporations that will grow up around them will deprive the people of all property until their children wake up homeless on the continent their fathers conquered. The issuing power should be taken from the banks and restored to the people, to whom it properly belongs."
- Thomas Jefferson, Letter to Treasury Secretary Albert Gallatin (1802)
The Federal Reserve is not part of the government it is a private bank owned by other member private banks.
Grow money like it grows on a tree that money is worthless.
99.9999% of the Congress doesn't get it. Pres. Bush says we need new laws. BS I say we need to re-adopt the Constitution before we become orphans.
