Behind the news…

BTW here is a picture of my newest acquisition.
On another subject, some people can call this spin, but it’s so off the charts it’s hard not to call it simply – lying – at a very high government level.

If our current debt load is unsustainable, why did we do it? Now, if a group of us banded together and we made, say $1,000,000 in total annual salary and half of us got laid off – how would we be able to borrow $4,000,000 to “do things” even if they are reasonable things like road building etc. We can’t realistically pay that debt on in a reasonable time. If that doesn’t make sense for us, why does it make sense for the US government, an organization that CREATES no revenue to support that “bill”. It’s insane.
We’ve been losing 600,000 jobs a month for a while now nationally but there’s a silver lining in that the government is hiring about 66,000 a month more people? But, again, the government doesn’t “make money” it takes it in from us and doles it out, keeping more than a small amount in the bargain. This is insane.
The President states what he wants to say (much of which could likely be held unconstitutional if challenged – like firing CEOs or setting CAPS on salaries) regardless of the impact or facts behind them, and people believe it. This is insane. Obama the Destroyer those of you who thing the government running things is so great need to read this.
Would you have a personal computer without free markets? This is insane.
