Youse guys don't know nuttin' 'bout financial 'chinery.

I'm learning more about how those crooks and crinimals work than I ever cared to know. I guess that is why they say ignorance is bliss. Pass the Prozac and the Tums.

I like the way a guy phrases it on another board, he says "looking into these crooks is like digging a foxhole in a outhouse".

My mind still cannot let go of the figure $33 trillion, which is the total debt issued in this country.

It's only a problem if we can't service the debt. Consider the federal government debt. What is almost never discussed is the value of FedGov assets. What if all FedGov land were sold? I haven't done the math, but I bet it would take some of the scare out of the dreaded National Debt.

The main number to watch is the tax rate. Keep it low, and fiscal restraint will follow.

Pass the Prozac and Tums? Call me old fashioned, I rely on Gin and Maalox. Makes a great chaser to a Mogambo Guru commentary.
