When I did some rough calculations of my own and showed them to The Oracle, he asked if it was the monthly increase. When I told him it was actually the WEEKLY increase, I thought I should probably provide a bucket for the poor man.

We tried to make Iraq another state and failed, and it looks like Afghanistan won't be a state either.<br /><br />There goes a few trillion down the drain. We never raised taxes when we invaded and sent in the occupation forces.<br /><br />I wouldn't mind a huge tax increase if it did anything to the debt.<br /><br />Harry and Obama think 1.6 trillion more taxes will help. Hell, we spend that in a year just on farm and energy subsidies. It'd be like dropping a quarter in the salvation army kettle.Fed-up with being Fed-up (Federally)noreply@blogger.com
