Pssst, Nancy. Yeah, Paul. Check it out. See those reporters over there? CNN, Fox, yup. They're heading out to cover the Powerball thing, 1.3 billion. "A" billion? Yeah, ONE point 3 billion! They have no freaking idea what we do here, do they? None at all.
To say the least.
2015 FedGov AMERICAN EXPRESS Centurion Card Statement
$3.249 trillion ... REVENUE: Taxes taken from Americans - $3.688 trillion ... OUTLAYS: Money spent buying your votes ------------------------------- = $438.9 billion .... DEFICIT: Red Ink charged to future taxpayers
Perhaps it is time for a new numerical base unit and billing statement ...
TAXES ... 2,500 Powerball jackpots SPENDING ... 2,837 Powerball jackpots ------------------------------------- = YOU OWE ... 337 Powerball jackpots ( this year. plus interest. )
... So easy a caveman, I mean, a taxpayer could understand. Geico.
Fellow FRiends, please remind your kids and grandkid this week that FedGov alone charged approximately one of those Powerball jackpots each and every day billed against their future income.
More amazingly, FedGov actually spent over 7 of those Powerball jackpots each and every day last fiscal year.
This is probably a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to add dimension to those dimensionless numbers that FedGov is drowning America with. Don't let the opportunity pass.
