Weekly Musings - "Check Please!"

Weekly Musings© - “Check Please!”

The U.S. National debt as of this date is approximately $9,202,283,466,694.03. Based on recent census data there are slightly more than 304 million Americans. Your share of the tab, and the share of every man, woman, and child in this country is now more than $30,000.00. Please do not mail your check yet. The Federal Government would prefer that you carry the balance and pay interest to the lien holders.

You may remit your interest payments and apply for limit increases to foreign governments such as that of Dubai, China, India, Japan, Saudi Arabia, etc. These interest payments are an essential part of their annual budgeting when providing health care, housing, education and other basic services to their citizens. We appreciate your selfless act and willingness to send your present and future wealth oversees even when so many in the United States do not have health care or decent education.

Without your indifference to the doctrine of perpetual war and ravenous over-spending by the Boomer generation, we could not continue to send so much money overseas or into the pockets of such magnificent executives as those at Halliburton and Bechtel.

Thank you for your continued support.

Sincerely,

The Bastards Mortgaging Your Future

PS For your convenience, you may now make monthly payments by direct deposit via your paycheck. Just work and we will simply take a cut of all your earnings.
