Let's now remove 8 zeros and pretend it's a household budget:
Annual family income: $21,700
Money family spent: $38,200
New debt on credit card: $16,500
Outstanding balance on credit card: $142,710
Total budget cuts so far: $385
Maybe if we re-elect the big zero he will have a plan to fix this, with all his vast experience creating jobs and wealth how can we go wrong.

ReplyDeleteI admit I sorta skimmed over the first numbers, but when you get down to the family budget -WOW! Brings it all home in a real way - totally unmanageable debt, looking like a hole we'll never get out of! Gonna show this to several flop-eared supporters, and see if they have a glimmer of what I've been preaching to them...probably not. But thanks anyway.
Baby Sis, it is sobering, thanks.
DeleteJust depressing, isn't it. Sharp, how you painted the picture.
ReplyDeleteWe have a lot of stupid voters to blame in this country. Thanks.
DeleteThanks for putting the Cherry on top the ice cream sundae for me! : )
ReplyDeleteGlad I could brighten your day.
DeleteTo many people just don't get the picture. Well put Duke!
ReplyDeleteThanks John.
DeleteNo matter how hard we try, we just can't get through to some folks!
ReplyDeleteHowever, in the way you broke it down, even those hard headed folks should be able to understand!
HermitJim, I agree my friend. Thanks.
DeleteI think you just explained it all. Thanks.
ReplyDeleteMaybe you should run for president. LOL
Amy, Nice of you to say so but I would probably pass an executive order abolishing all laws written in the last 100 years. Thanks.
DeleteWhat is wrong with that????
Deletewith the way you have broken down the numbers, Dear Duke, you would think that a retarded monkey would understand...and he would. not so for some other folk that i will not name or point fingers at (cough...ahem...big zero followers)!
ReplyDeleteyour friend,
kymber
Kimber, Retarded monkeys are quite a bit brighter than the average 0bama voter. Thanks my friend.
